Solar energy offers an alternative
For many farmers, the alternative is solar energy.
Modern, welldesigned, simpletomaintain solar
systems can provide AZ solutions to farmers need. .

Disadvantages of conventional fuels
It is very normal to use diesel or propane to power generators in
agricultural operations. there are some significant drawbacks,
including:
∙ Fuel has to be transported, depending upon farm location
∙ Their noise and fumes can disturb livestock and local residents
∙ Fuel costs add up, and spills can contaminate the land.
∙ Generators require a significant amount of maintenance and, like all
mechanical systems, they break down and need replacement parts that
aren’t always available.
