A proposed solar farm in California's Westlands Water District aims to cover 200 square miles and generate 21,000 megawatts of electricity. Farmers, facing water shortages, back the project as a new use for fallow land.

Golden State Clean Energy is leading the initiative, requiring significant power lines for electricity distribution. While the project promises income for farmers, local communities express concerns over job losses and seek a share of solar revenue for training and education.
