I disagree with the proposed project because of the inappropriate scale of this development and the impact and irreversible damage that developing a site of 2,105 acres will have on the local community and surrounding countryside. • Lincolnshire is an agricultural county and in order for future food security there should be no loss of any agricultural land used for food production and especially not when it includes the proposed 41+% loss of quality productive land • Solar panels can be located on brownfield sites and roofs, food cannot be grown on brownfield sites, • This project would change the character of the area from countryside to an industrial landscape and cause lasting damage on biodiversity and the environment. • Solar only produces. on average 11% of its maximum generating capacity over a period of a year, making Solar an inefficient source of energy. • The proposal will impact on people's lives and mental health and lead to irreversible damage to the community
