Not much desert around me. Good farmland is getting leveled and solar put on top when there are parking lots already flat they could do it on. It's just much, much easier to work with fresh ground. It's why old warehouses are left to rot and farmland right next to them are razed for new warehouses.
I put some solar on my farm, but made sure to use a plot that isn't suitable for farming.
