We have windmills not too far from here (1/2 hour) and the only ones complaining are the ones that don't have them. I don't know what the rules are there but here they're not allowed to be right out your door. They have to be a 1/3 mile away minimum from a owner that is not participating. I can't really see them affecting farm land value too much. They provide a fair bit of supplemental income so if you don't want them affecting YOUR land value, get one or a few. Windmills are actually one of the more cost effective green energies out there. Ontario has a green energy program called FIT and MicroFIT. The FIT programs pay out $0.443-$0.802/kwh for solar power $0.185 for farm biogas, $0.122 for hydro, and $0.135 for wind. These prices are all based on what it costs to buy, run, maintain, finance, and profit, so they are a good indication of the true costs of green energy.
