We have a Solar power plant, spread in 5 acres in guntur, andhra pradesh. All the solar panels are placed at 1.5 mts above the ground level on framed foundations.
Climate here is very hot in summer and humid in rest of the year.
There are about 2.5 meters wide "open to air" space between the solar panel rows.
We want to grow some cash crop in this spacing of 2.5 meters between the panels. Our idea is that these plants should help bring the temperature down for solar panels to perform better.
Plants should not grow more than one meter, as this will cause shades falling on the solar panels.
Crop should be able to grow under drip irrigation
Manpower used to be minimal
total cultivable land is around 3 acres.
Kindly give your suggestions and also give reasons for why you feel ur suggested crop is good for this requirement.
Thanks in advance
