Delayed

Kentucky sheep farmer Daniel Bell planned to build a new barn heated by rooftop solar panels to reduce energy costs. He intended to apply for a renewable-energy grant through the USDA's Rural Energy for America Program (REAP) to help fund the project, but the program's grants were effectively halted, making it impossible to proceed on his land.
