A farmer says brownfield sites should be used for solar farms as 'they don't make land anymore'.
It would have a lifespan of 40 years before the land it was on was returned to arable use.
"It's a sad day when farmers aren't valued and the countryside could be plastered with plastic panels," he said."They don't make land anymore, we've got to look after what we've got and we mustn't industrialise the countryside," Mr Kiddy said. Belchamp Saint Paul resident, Keith Melvin said: "There is a strong objection, but not against renewables, only against having them on arable land," said Mr Melvin.
Colin Ramsey, development director of British Solar Renewables, said about 12,500 homes would be powered using clean renewables.
