How Solitech is Helping Gujarat Farmers Harvest Two Crops: One from the Soil, One from the Sun

How Solitech is Helping Gujarat Farmers Harvest Two Crops One from the Soil, One from the Sun

India has always been an agricultural country. Agriculture is a major part of India’s development, so how great it would be if solar power were connected to this agriculture! In earlier times, farmers used to grow crops in only two out of three seasons, but today, due to increasing technology, it has become possible to grow crops in all three seasons. In the modern era, Solitech Solar has brought a technology that is installed directly on the crop, not on the farmer’s roof or farm fence. Have you seen a blockbuster scene of your favorite movie hero? Just imagine if there are crops floating on the ground and solar panels just above it, the energy is doubled.

In India today, farmers are given the lowest respect than big businessmen, actors or any other celebrities. This is not considered a good thing, that’s why Solitech Solar has brought one land and two benefits. So that in the future, farmers do not commit suicide and can cultivate with an open mind. In this way, they should not face power shortage while cultivating. We need food to run our bodies properly. Farmers grow everything else, so farmers are an important part of our lives. Understanding this importance, Solitech Solar has adopted this concept.

1) What is Agrivoltaics?

We know you must be wondering, if solar panels are installed next to the ground, how can farming be done on the ground? That’s why Solitech Solar’s high-rise solar technology, which is installed above the ground, is proving very useful for farmers.

Panels are installed at a certain height from the ground.

  • The panels are installed at a height that allows tractors or farming equipment to move easily underneath.
  • Our high-quality solar technology allows sunlight to fall through the bottom of the panel, which is sufficient for the ground.

2) Major benefits to farmers

Since we have developed this technology only for farmers, it is imperative to discuss the benefits for farmers:

Double income

Using this technology, farmers can earn money by selling crops and can also earn money by selling electricity to the government.

30% water saving

Solar panels act as a shade on the crops. Due to which evaporation of water from the soil is reduced. The crops remain green even with less water.

Protection Against the heat

Many times, if the amount of sunlight is high, this sunlight falls directly on the crop and damages the crop. Therefore, if there is a solar panel cover on top, then direct sunlight does not fall on the crop and the crop remains clean.

Freedom from electricity bills and nighttime exposure

Solar panels act as a shade on the crops. Due to which evaporation of water from the soil is reduced. The crops remain green even with less water.

Reduced fertilizer and pesticide costs

According to research, the micro-climate under solar panels reduces the incidence of certain diseases and pests.

3) Why Solitech Solar?

Installing solar in agriculture is no ordinary task, as the panels have to withstand moisture, dust, and chemical particles from fertilizers.

  • We use a GIDC standard hot-dipped galvanized structure, which prevents rust in the field.
  • The Solitech team helps farmers with complete documentation to avail subsidies ranging from 60% to 90% under PM-KUSUM and SKY schemes.
  • Solitech’s panels generate electricity from both sides. They also generate additional energy from light reflected from the ground.

4) Which crops grow best under solar?

Our panels are capable of withstanding any weather and temperature conditions as per the climate of Gujarat, so you can use our panels in the farm without any worries.

Panels work effectively on crops like tomatoes, chillies, spinach.

  • The special thing is that shade is more suitable for crops like turmeric.
  • Crops like peanuts and garlic also successfully thrive under solar.

✓ Prosperous farmers, prosperous India!

In Indian culture, farmers are considered to be the embodiment of God. When a farmer has his own electricity, he will not be dependent on expensive diesel or irregular electricity. Solitech Solar is proud to be a food provider as well as an energy provider to thousands of farmers of India.

Why a 600W Competitor Might Actually Produce Less Power Than a 550W Solitech Module

Suppose you go to learn music and you have a guitar. A student coming to the music class also has a guitar. His guitar is a little bigger in size and your guitar is smaller in size. The big guitar he has has various stickers stuck on it and is decorated, and the guitar you have is small. But the big guitar he has doesn’t play well and stops occasionally, whereas the guitar you have, even though it’s small, plays well. Now the question here is which guitar would you choose? We know your answer would be to choose the smaller guitar. Friends, this is not just an ordinary little story, but it teaches us a lot. The same is seen in the solar market today. Many solar manufacturers sell panels by showing big numbers, but in the long run, they cannot work for a long time and stop working halfway through. Today, many consumers who want to buy panels fall prey to such greedy figures. Solitech Solar wants to warn you well to prevent this from happening. As a leading solar manufacturer, our only goal is to provide every customer with quality panels at a low price. Let us discuss this matter in more detail in this blog.
