Agriculture is very important to human beings because it is the sole provider of food
for human. However, agricultural processes require constant energy resources for machineries
operation, irrigation pumps, greenhouse heating. All of these are conventionally operated using
fossil fuel. The use of fossil fuel in agricultural farms accelerates climate changes as it emits
lots of greenhouse gases. This made scientists, researchers and academicians to find an
alternative and sustainable agricultural farming using renewable energy such as solar panel
energy technology to mitigate the environmental problems that may result to global warming
and climate change. Furthermore, to solve the alarming fear of exhaustion of fossil fuel. The
authors present this article by reviewing literatures from various available sources. The article
concludes that there is the need to conduct more researches in order to optimize the
combination of solar panel energy technology application and agricultural cultivation among
the agricultural farmers due to its environmental as well as economic feasibility.
