Almost any area builds soil structure if you leave it undisturbed. It’s important to remember that solar installations aren’t an industrial concrete slab but leave space for secondary agricultural use. I have a hayfield which produces better year over years because the roots of the grass are undisturbed.

As a data point, there is ongoing development of the "flat slab on the ground" type of approach too.

Would love to see a photo of this, is there a term I can google image search or photos?

You can google "no till agriculture" or more broadly "permaculture".

What does that have to do with solar panels?
