Solar Grazing Health Launches Producer Subscription Plans to Support the Growing Solar Grazing Industry

Lebanon, IN — [April 20, 2026] — Solar Grazing Health, an initiative of the RSG Foundation, is proud to announce the official launch of its Producer Subscription Plans, designed to provide solar grazing operators with accessible, expert-driven support in animal health, nutrition, and operational success.

As the solar grazing industry continues to expand across the United States, producers are facing increasing demands for animal welfare compliance, vegetation management efficiency, and scalable flock performance. The Solar Grazing Health subscription platform delivers a structured, tiered service model to meet these evolving needs—bringing veterinary expertise, practical tools, and ongoing support directly to producers.

“Our goal is to remove barriers and give solar grazers access to the same level of professional support typically reserved for larger, more traditional livestock operations,” said Doug Edge, Director of the RSG Foundation. “These subscription plans are built to help producers operate more efficiently, improve animal performance, and meet the expectations of solar developers and landowners.”

Subscription Tiers Built for Every Level of Operation

The Solar Grazing Health Producer Subscription Plans are structured to support operations of all sizes, from new entrants to large-scale grazing enterprises. Key offerings include:

  • Basic Tier (Free) – Provides access to essential resources, including SOP templates, educational materials, and email-based support. Subscribers also gain access to the MyAnimalRx pharmacy platform, allowing producers to purchase antibiotics, dewormers, and other medications in states where RSG veterinarians are licensed and a valid veterinarian-client-patient relationship (VCPR) can be established.
  • Standard Tier – Expanded support with access to consulting guidance, health protocols, and operational planning tools.
  • Premium Tier – Comprehensive service including direct veterinary and nutrition consulting, flock health planning, and priority support.
  • Premium+ Tier (Custom Quote) – Fully customized solutions, including assistance with genetic sourcing, flock expansion strategies, and tailored operational consulting.

Each tier is designed to provide increasing levels of access to experienced veterinarians, nutritionists, and industry professionals, while maintaining affordability and scalability for producers.

Supporting a Rapidly Growing Industry

Solar grazing has emerged as a sustainable solution for vegetation management on solar energy sites, offering environmental benefits while creating new opportunities for livestock producers. However, success in this space requires a unique combination of animal management expertise and site-specific planning.

Solar Grazing Health addresses these challenges by offering:

  • Flock health and welfare planning
  • Parasite management strategies
  • Nutrition consulting and supplementation programs
  • Solar site grazing assessments
  • Ongoing producer education and support

By integrating these services into a subscription model, Solar Grazing Health ensures producers have continuous support—not just one-time consultation.

Driving Long-Term Success for Producers and Solar Developers

The launch of the Producer Subscription Plans aligns with Solar Grazing Health’s broader mission to professionalize and standardize best practices across the industry. With increasing expectations around animal welfare, land stewardship, and vegetation outcomes, these services help producers build credibility and long-term partnerships with solar developers and utilities.

“Solar grazing is more than just putting sheep on a site—it’s about delivering consistent, professional results,” Edge added. “These subscriptions give producers the tools, knowledge, and support to succeed long-term.”

Producers can now explore and enroll in subscription plans by visiting SolarGrazingHealth.org. Enrollment is open nationwide, with services expanding as the platform grows.
