LoL... Career path. I worked on a farm and it wasn't mine. I'm pretty certain I can't afford a farm.
I do appreciate your optimism and advocacy on solar farming. A house with a roof full of solar is all I really wanted. I'd like a few panels that I an plug in for my patio. The technology in the article is right up my alley.
If you can learn to write a business proposal, you don't have to be able to afford it. A bank will practically shit themselves to give people loans that can show that an initial investment of less than $500,000 to $750,000 (for a 150 acre farm) will produce an average of $1,200,000- $1,500,000 per year every year for the next 25 years.
Edit: the previous reply in this chain wasn't me. I appreciate their support though.
Edit 2: if you don't know how to write a business proposal, librarians can and will help with that.
