Cleve Hill is off Kent, which despite housing has better farmland than anywhere in Scotland overall (and a warmer climate). Scotland is getting higher rainfall (thus far, last two summers have been bad). There isn't really a good analogue to Kent or East Anglia here.
From an agricultural POV, most of the land is upland so unsuitable for crops. As I've said elsewhere, there is a problem with suburban sprawl, particularly between Edinburgh and Glasgow, the Lothians, South West Fife... Housing is gobbling up a lot of better land, although industry and mining has made some areas unsuitable for crops too.
The major crops tend to be barley (rather than wheat) and some oats in the grain side; raspberries and strawberries (often in polytunnels); potatoes and things like beets and swedes (neeps).
The main criticism of solar in Scotland is that we get very short days in summer, on top of the weather. In high summer there is light past ten in the evening sometimes, whereas in winter it can be getting dark not long after four.
