Sorry not enough information to answer your question.
Start with the energy requirements by making a list of all the loads and how long they run, everything will depend on this, there is no other way, I assume you are thinking of solar power to save on fuel costs.
Second system 1890W 3 × 300W No name brand poly, 3×330 Sunsolar Poly panels, Morningstar TS 60 PWM controller, no name 2000W inverter 400Ah LFP 24V nominal battery with Daly BMS, used for water pumping and day time air conditioning.
5Kw Yanmar clone single cylinder air cooled diesel generator for rare emergency charging and welding.
Looking at your loads--Figuring out how to get the most efficient loads you can (LED lighting, efficient water pumps, no electric heaters, etc.)... Can help.
Or perhaps you need X kWatts during part of the day (pumping water to cistern, washing animals, strong lightning for groming, etc.)--But at night, all you need is a little bit of LED lighting and/or motion detector based lighting for security/keeping an eye on the horses.... And for quiet time/overnight small loads--A battery bank (genset recharging) can be a good way to save on fuel/have lights and water pumping for stock when needed.
