There have been repeated food shortages and price increases over the past 2 years therefore quality farmland land is more important for food than a solar farm. The location is very inaccurate. While the land isn't perfect for wildlife due to the excessive pesticide, herbicide and fertilizer spread as part of modern farming, the disturbance from the building work will eliminate any wildlife. In the future the land will be herbicide sprayed so access to the infrastructure can be easily maintained so further preventing any recolonization, leaving the whole area a dead zone. The efficiency of solar generation in the Lincolnshire latitude to provide electric power is too low to be a source of power. This is shown by the vast area required to generate a still small amount of power.
