Herbage Yield, Lamb Growth and Foraging Behavior in Agrivoltaic Production System

Herbage Yield, Lamb Growth and Foraging Behavior in Agrivoltaic Production System

Agrivoltaic systems are designed to mutually benefit solar energy and agricultural production in the same location for dual-use of land. This study was conducted to compare lamb growth and pasture production from solar pastures in agrivoltaic systems and traditional open pastures over 2 years in Ore...
