For years, rural communities in the US have confronted a myriad of economic challenges stemming from factors such as escalating input costs, climate fluctuations, extreme weather patterns, an aging population, and heightened competition from international farmers. CROP aims to empower landowners and farmers with the transition towards clean energy thereby supporting rural independence and revitalizing rural America at the grassroots level.
Community
Rural America is hurting from a shrinking tax base as many families move away. As the tax income tapers, so do the services provided. For example, schools shrink and are forced to cut expenses, which diminishes the education of the students. Parents then move away for the benefit of their children. Wind farms and solar fields can help turn this around!
