Seeta Sistla and her students at Hampshire College have studied what’s happening with the plants and soil and critters under and near solar panels in Vermont agricultural fields. They’ll tell us who is winning the struggle for survival in the new environment, how solar panels can strengthen agriculture, and why Hampshire College and the state of Minnesota are mandating that solar farms be designed as pollinator habitat.
