That’s why the family decided solar was a huge asset to their farm. Not only will their solar panels save them an est. $180,000 in the first 25 years, it will also give them budget certainty. That’s one less variable out of the complex and delicate equation of running a farm.
Those savings will help the family keep their wheat farm operating in Pendleton, Oregon long into the future and support the next generation of farmers in the family.
