Hops for beer flourish under solar panels. They're not the only crop thriving in the shade.::A farm in Bavaria is covering its hops with solar panels, providing electricity to 250 households and shading the plants from the increasingly scorching summer heat in the process.

Well people also complain on expansion of agriculture land

They do?

Where I live most people complain that agricultural land is being lost to urban sprawl.

Reducing the amount of land available to produce food is not a good thing.
