wrong place for this project. put it in places where its going to have no negative impacts on landowners and community / village which clearly isn't here.

Projects like these are valuable but not at the expense of pristine agricultural assets. This project would be a stain on the a beautiful landscape and set a president that strikes at the heart of essential food bowls throughout Australia. Is this where our subsides are best spent? Classic case of robbing Peter to pay John (sorry I mentioned to say Paul :).

You can't produce any more PRIME agricultural land - a rich national resource- OUR FOOD SECURITY - Place BIG Solar on MARGINAL land.

Not on prime agricultural land. Not in the middle of a historical, pristine rural village. There are so many, more suitable locations.

Tere must be a better use for this prime agricultural land. Plenty of areas less suited to Agriculture that would suit the solar farm. Complete lack of consultation on this project

This is part of Bathursts prime farming land!!! Take your solar farm and put it somewhere appropriate on land that is not used for agriculture. Disgraceful! "Photon Energy" should be ashamed of itself!

This agricultural land is the food bowl of the Central West. We need to keep that in perspective and beware of spin from Photon Energy that the land would still be productive for grazing. It wouldn't. There is surely a better, more suitable position for a solar farm. Love solar power, just put it somewhere sensible.

I agree, I am not opposed to Solar but I am opposed to this opportunist development on prime agricultural land!!

Agricultural land is for agriculture. Move commercial industry such as solar to less productive land. While we are at it let's stop giving hard working taxpayer money away in subsidies to foreign owned companies that don't significantly contribute to local employment and direct profits offshore.

Surely more appropriate land can be found for this venture. This is prime farming land.
