Did you even read the article you posted?
"But these are familiar battlegrounds. Such tension has played out over many decades with agricultural communities facing serious environmental, social and health impacts from coal and coal seam gas projects."So you've identified a problem (great job) lets work out a solution like adults! Ok, so lets not put solar farms on land that farmers use to grow crops! simple!
1000kms away? One need only drive a few hours West of Brisbane (lets say, less than 500km) and you'll find vast areas of land certainly suitable for solar farms. Furthermore, many communities are already set up there.
Your article even suggested some solutions for farmers as well;
"But it’s not just about managing loss of land. Best practice regulation could lead to a range of benefits for farmers, from electricity benefits in the local community to sustainable farming practices. For one farmer in Dubbo, installing 56,000 solar panels provided crucial shade and condensation to help grass stay green for sheep grazing during drought. Likewise, solar energy from Sundrop Farms in South Australia powers a desalination unit, which produces pure water to irrigate crops."
So instead of throwing up your arms and saying "its all too hard and expensive" lets roll up our sleeves, solve the problem, adopt solutions, more adoption of the technology brings down the price, and everyone benefits.
