India has highlighted its innovation in combining solar energy generation with agriculture in ISA Assembly.
Agrivoltaic farming primarily focuses on the simultaneous use of land for both agriculture and solar energy generation.
In this method, solar panels are installed above crops, allowing land to be used for both farming and energy generation.
It helps maximize land productivity, provides shade for certain crops and reduces soil moisture loss.
This system supports sustainable energy transition while enhancing agricultural resilience and productivity, especially in regions with limited arable land.
