Sir,
Several farmers are leasing out land for WINDMILLs. Could you please share what are the adverse effects of WINDMILLs on farms. Whether windmill cause water scarcity or reduce water level or any negative growth of agriculture activities in near by cultivations.
Have observed that continues rotation of windmills may cause disturbance in air /wind circulations and may adversely effect the water level or moisture contents in the air. Air near to windmill may more dry and we do not have a study report how Windmills effect near by farms in its crops/fertility. If any farmers or experts could through light on this aspects please guide. local farmers said windmill cause dryness in near by farms.
I feel Windmills must be erected only in dry land or waste land. However big companies really exploring the poor farmers and distributing the ecology as well as agri economics. Poor farmers are lending or selling their soul of land in peanuts to companies to erect windmill and where companies gets good returns in power sales and heavy subsidies as well as tax releifes. If the that poor farmer gets 1/4 of these releife given to these corporates this farmer could succeed in his farming and thus balancing the agro economics and natural balance.
open for more thoughts and reviews.
