Concerning my comment about solar farms starving us - it is my opinion that solar panels are not the best use of tillable land. Some solar projects I have seen take the flattest most fertile ground out of production. There are proposals in southern Anne Arundel county to take 2 or 3 farms, 50-100 acres each, and fill with solar panels. In the chicken basket of Maryland, the Eastern Shore, there are proposals for hundreds, if not a thousand acres or more for solar panels on productive farmland. A farmer I know has outsmarted a utility & solar company on the lower shore for the foreseeable future to keep them from solarizing a couple hundred acre farm he leases. The eastern seaboard is already a corn deficit state, meaning we can not raise enough corn in this area to feed the chickens & cows that are being grown here by the likes of Perdue & Mountaire. There was already concern that yield gains in production ag would not be able to keep up with worldwide demand for food in the next 50 years. This was before the advent of solar energy gobbling up productive farmland. If we as a state and country are hell bent on clean renewable energy, let's look at wind power - that takes a much smaller footprint and can be installed on the side of mountains and in oceans - areas that are not as suitable for the production of food.
Being involved with agriculture and the legislative process at the state level gives me a leg up on some of these issues. I try to be a big picture guy. I don't really care what you think about the way I see things. Stick your head in the sand and let government control your life. I would like to control my own destiny.
