Description: The wind farm is located on land currently utilised for broadacre cropping and livestock production. It works towards improving soil condition that is important to agricultural productivity and the quality of ecosystem services provided to the community from rural lands. A wind turbine turns kinetic energy into mechanical power. This power can then be used for specific tasks, like pumping water, milling flour or be converted into electricity via a generator. Wind farms typically combine the output of multiple wind turbines sending the energy produced to the electricity grid.
