Agrivoltaics for sorghum, soybean grain

Researchers in the United States found that shading from agrivoltaic systems reduces grain numbers in both sorghum and soybean, but sorghum can partially compensate by increasing grain weight while soybean cannot. The study shows that sorghum and soybean respond differently due to their physiology, offering guidance for crop selection and management to minimize yield penalties in agrivoltaics.A research team from the United States' University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign has experimentally examined how shading in agrivoltaic systems influences sorghum and soybean grain yields, focusing on source-sink ...
