Solar is a necessary addition to the overall production of power but it should NOT be sited on productive agricultural land. There are many available brown field sites and rooves that could be used...

The project will drastically reduce the food production of the area because it takes up so much fertile farmland. Livelihoods will be lost. Roads in the area are struggling with existing traffic flow...

Lincolnshire and Norfolk I believe produce a third of this country’s fresh vegetables. With the ever increasing population we cannot supplement this except by imports. Factory farming, growing...

This is too big. Solar panels need to be on brownfield site, roof tops and infrastructure corridors first and the developers need to look properly for such sites before choosing open countryside. It's...

Generally I am in favour of solar wind farms as we need them as a source of clean green energy. I will examine the proposal in more detail

Farm land is for farming. It's already green and by far the best use of the land - the greenest that there can ever be. Filling it with slave labour manufactured panels and sub-structures helps nobody...

This proposed development is just one of an expanding list of individual applications, which would, if permitted, serve to industrialise a whole region of rural Lincolnshire. Local communities and...

We not only need to be self sufficient in power but food as well. Solar/windfarms don’t feed people - neither does the services sector in London. Nuclear power for energy and fields for food.

Too many acres of farmland are being lost to projects such as this. This country needs workable, productive agricultural land to ensure food poverty does not become worse, and that we are not reliant...

The 5 Solar NSIPs proposals within a few miles of each other would consume some 13,000 acres of farmland within this locality. The scale is obscene, unfair and a totally undemocratic prospect for us....
