Do solar farms threaten arable land in Scotland?
Debate is growing in Scotland over plans for large solar farms in the Carse of Gowrie, an area of prime farmland. Critics argue that covering productive arable land with solar panels risks undermining food production, and the question of how to balance renewable energy targets with protecting high-quality agricultural soil is being weighed by farmers, developers and planners.
Why now: New solar farm proposals on prime Scottish farmland have reignited the food-versus-energy land use debate.
