The case the article makes is for “devoting 1% of farmland to agrovoltaics”, that seems arguably very low and non-intrusive. The loss of some micronutrients is more worrying than the cute notion that industrial-scale farming bothers with sheep grazing.

We could grow some crops in that 1% of land and provide reams of clean power to the world. And the more we restore land to nature, as opposed to our mono-crops and cows, the more co-benefits we reap.
