Moderate Sheep Grazing Boosts Bees at Solar Farms, Study Finds
A Cornell University study found that moderate sheep grazing beneath solar panels increases beneficial insect diversity by 38%, especially honey bees. Maintaining two sheep per hectare strikes a balance between managing vegetation and protecting bee health. However, heavier grazing reduces these benefits, highlighting the need for careful grazing management at solar farms to support pollinators.
