The USDA is facing a lawsuit over solar energy programs that left Iowa farmers financially responsible after federal support reportedly fell through. Farmers who enrolled in the programs say they were left on the hook for costs they were promised help with. Local Iowa outlets including KIWA Radio and Radio Iowa are covering the case, which raises questions about the department's handling of rural renewable energy commitments.
