Solar water pumps are essential in many locations where the availability of electric power is uncertain or nonexistent.

Using solar thermal energy after a harvest allows for longer storage because it requires less time and is not affected by the elements.

Solar greenhouse heating systems produce heat and light and are used to gather and store energy.

Solar energy is used for lighting the farm and household appliances which makes it an excellent choice for regions where the generation of electricity is not possible.

Tractors driven by the sun have become a viable choice since they can operate during the day using solar energy and can operate at night using energy stored in batteries.

Solar energy can be used efficiently in space cooling or a combination of heating and cooling, improving the shelf life of agricultural products.
