Italy bans PV from agricultural land
The Italian government has issued a new decree to completely ban solar from agricultural land.
The Italian government has issued a new decree that prohibits the deployment of large-scale solar plants on productive agricultural land. The final aim of the decree is to “avoid desertification” of Italian agricultural land.
The government said it will still be possible to continue producing energy in quarries, mines, areas under concession to the state railway, areas under concession to airport concessionaires, areas protecting the motorway strip, and areas inside industrial plants, among others.
Italian agricultural association Coldiretti welcomed the move to halt speculation by large investment funds, which has been putting agricultural production at risk. It has long called for the allocation of suitable areas for ground-mounted PV.

Very sensible move
To my knowledge there has not been any studies into cost efficiencies for wind or solar farms
It's back to the good old Labor planning, get some good red, snacks and toilet paper & when we have a free half hour, we will put a plan down on the toilet paper
All people with technical knowledge will be banned from the meeting
