The loss of usable farm land will be detrimental to the food industry, the farmers and their families, especially in the case of tenant farmers. The fencing being proposed at the intended solar land will cause the loss of wildlife on an immense scale, when the cumulative effect of all the proposed solar farms are taken into account, the deer, badgers and other animals banished from these fields, add to this the detrimental effect on the communities mental health, when whichever way we drive or walk within a minimum 10 mile radius, we will see solar panels, fences and associated buildings instead of green, productive fields and their habitats.
