While ships struggled, billionaire’s $300m superyacht crossed Hormuz

Across Massachusetts, an unusual partnership is bringing renewable energy and traditional farming together on the same land. Sheep are being brought onto ground-mounted solar farms, where the panels provide shade while the animals graze on grass and weeds growing beneath and between the arrays. Known as solar grazing, the practice gives solar operators a natural way to manage vegetation in areas that can be difficult or costly to mow mechanically. At the same time, farmers gain access to additional grazing land for their flocks. Instead of forcing agriculture and renewable energy to compete for space, these projects show how sheep and solar panels can potentially share it.Why Massachusetts solar farms are turning to sheepGround-mounted solar farms need regular vegetation management.
