Monday, 15 March 2021 As interest grows in agrisolar – using land for both agriculture and solar power – the Clean Energy Council has produced the Australian Guide to Agrisolar for Large-scale Solar to assist proponents of utility-scale solar and the landholders and farmers who work with them to integrate agricultural activities into solar farm projects.

But Mr Engeman was firm in his commitment to bring the Gympie region a show to remember when it returns on 12 May, after last yearâs edition was cancelled by the coronavirus pandemic.
âThe intention is to have a show, and as much as possible a proper show,â Mr Engeman said yesterday ahead of a monthly Show Society meeting.
âIt was always âIf weâre going to do the show, weâll put on a showâ. We wonât have any entertainment in the main pavilion, but weâll have lots of entertainment in the main ring.
