Calgary -based Sun Cycle Farms grazed cattle inside a grid-connected solar farm in southern Alberta .

The company is part of a rapidly expanding field that aims to combine solar energy production with agricultural activities.

Solar farm owners are increasingly deploying sheep and even pigs at their sites to keep weeds down and reduce the need for mowing around the panels.

“And then we’ll have solar burgers. It’ll be quite nice.”.
