Agrivoltaic system designing for sustainability and smart farming: Agronomic aspects and design criteria with safety assessment

•Integral design of agrivoltaic system (AVS) is established to promote dissemination.•The column of the AVS structure was vulnerable to wind loads.•Safety standards varied according to the adjusted column spacing.•The narrower the column design, the more advantageous the safety.•Presented design criteria can assist in AVS design decision-making.
