Italy boosts crops and clean energy with solar-powered farming

In Italy, farmers are blending solar energy with agriculture, creating a sustainable future for crops and clean energy.

By installing solar panels above their fields, farmers protect ancient crops like citron and lemon trees from heat while generating renewable energy.

The result? Healthier plants, improved yields, and reduced water usage—all while farmers gain an additional income stream from selling surplus energy back to the grid.

This fusion of nature and technology not only benefits the environment but also revitalizes rural communities and shows sustainability can thrive with tradition.

Discover how Italy’s farmers are balancing food security, clean energy, and sustainability with innovative solar-powered farming.
