The experience of sheep farming development on solar farms

Alex Greer took a strategic approach, utilizing a special program that brings together farmers and solar developers to expand his sheep-breeding business. He managed to secure contracts to graze livestock on plots totaling 38 acres located in Ashsboro and Rowan counties. In the process, the farmer faced such difficulties as the need to control vegetation and install predator-proof fencing.

According to research, sheep grazing can improve soil health while remaining a financially viable solution compared to traditional mechanical grass mowing over the long term. Alex Greer's experience demonstrates the promise of combining solar energy and agriculture.
