Loss of agricultural land and production will be, somewhat already is, a serious problem.

A huge problem with solar “farms,” is the problem of runoff.
The grass under the panels die, leaving nothing to hold the soil. When the big rains come, the soil will be washed away as the grass roots that once held the soil is gone. If they do not engineer proper erosion control for this land then neighboring land will be flooded with mud and debris.
I really doubt they put gravel under all those panels, that would be cost prohibitive for the project. The photo indicates terrain change, and those hills will erode away without grass.....sad to be neighbors of these idiotic pipe dreams..
