Synopsis A Massachusetts farm is integrating solar panels above berry fields. This agrivoltaics project generates electricity while shading the crops. The elevated panels create a cooler microclimate, retaining soil moisture effectively. Berries grown under shade were larger, juicier, and sweeter than those in full sun. This innovative approach offers a model for climate-resilient farming and renewable energy in the US.
