New Solar Panels Allow Farmers to See the Light

A recent study from the University of California, Davis, shows how #farmers may soon be able to harvest #crops and #energy together, on common ground. Researchers concluded that bands within the visible light spectrum can be filtered and harnessed separately—blue lightwaves to generate #solar #power and red lightwaves to grow fruits and vegetables—to make maximum use of farmland, all while lowering heat stress and reducing crop waste.
