I guess they start saying "Texas, where the men are men and the sheep are nervous." Wonder how the Wellie market is doing?

Is the rat population is thriving on all the cooked fowl?

Consider the source.
When you stop laughing, go to a believable source.

SB Energy operates the fifth-largest solar project in the country, capable of generating 900 megawatts of power across 4,000 acres (1,618 hectares).

4,000 acres = 6.25 Square miles. Takes up a little more space than a coal fired, or natural gas, or nuclear plant.

During the 60’s it was the fashion trend in agriculture to put up Harvestore silos, otherwise know a blue idols to the corn gods. It was a time of great profits in agriculture and farmers were told how this would this feed sysstem would make them more profitable and life easier and maybe it did. But then a new fashion came, investors building big cattle lots in the sw where the weather was better.

It took 20 years before the last one was taken down.

It would be extremely disruptive if they were to find an endangered weed in said fields.

Just sayin’.

The irony here being that the same hypocrites who promote solar farms and grazing by sheep are opposed to free ranging cattle.

The polar vortex has temperatures here double digits below zero tonight and there is very little wind. It would be mightily cold in our homes if we had to depend on solar farms and windmills for heat tonight.

Problem is, the solar companies don’t pay their bills.

I have a client with thousands of sheep doing this on the east coast. He uses a meat sheep that does not need to be sheared. I forget the actual breed.

Biggest problem is getting the solar companies to pay their invoices. They don’t have much cash flow.

There is an outgoing controversy among environmentalists!
The real one (minority) are concerning about nature, the other just about global warming.
All “green” energy project are very detrimental to the nature!
So this article seems to try to show that “green” energy project are not total loss, that they can put the land to some use.
If this is the best use of land destroyed by solar projects, it just show how bad these projects really are!

Funny how those ruminants are not a source of methane and climate change gases but cattle are.

China is doing a giant booming busy in Biden’s “renewables” expenditures and subsdidies, while it increases its coal fired power plants.

Beneath hundreds of rows of solar panels, a troop of stocky sheep rummage through pasture.

After the hail storms that Texas is noted for wonder what the mercury count is around them from the panels.

Don’t drink the water.

Know someone who leased out 400 acres of farmland for 25 years for solar. The company bulldozed the topsoil off and piled it up and leveled the land. Installed concrete supporting posts for the panels. After 25 years, they are supposed to remove the panels, posts, and reinstall the topsoil. Wonder how that will turn out for the grandkids.
