Bill Summary

A bill for an act relating to commercially owned solar panel field installation on agricultural land.(See SF 2321.)

AI Summary

This bill proposes to regulate the installation of commercially owned solar panel fields on agricultural land in Iowa. Specifically, it states that such solar panel fields can only be installed on agricultural land with a corn suitability rating (CSR) of 65 or lower, and they must be at least a half-mile distance from other solar panel fields and 1,250 feet from the nearest adjacent landowner. The bill defines key terms such as "agricultural land," "commercially owned solar panel field," and "corn suitability rating" to provide context for these new requirements.
