Water Supply Is Saved from Evaporation When Solar Panels Are Built over Canals

Still, a side to side bridging frame will be needed as well as potential support in the middle area - perhaps by cable? There may also be other aqua culture aspects - fish? Fish pee will fertilize the iffigation water. This would depend on minimum water levels. Waste plant materials can also feed some breeds of fish, and agriculture makes this at certain seasons.
