We partner with solar developers, landowners, and aspiring graziers to create sustainable, cost-effective land management solutions—powered by sheep.
At Sunovis Ranch, we specialize in solar grazing—a land management solution that uses sheep to maintain vegetation under solar arrays.
We serve clients across Indiana and the Midwest with custom plans, hands-on services, and educational outreach that moves the industry forward.
Designed to give cost estimates to integrate successful low-maintenance grazing. Each plan is a robust deliverable that helps solar developers get projects permitted and run smoothly.
