Italian farmers pay effectively 0% taxes on land and the areas are quite poor. Data centers on the other hand pay lots of taxes.

Why would they ban productive uses of land?

Obviously because they care more about things than just making money.

That's very black and white.

They don't pay "lots" of taxes. They pay taxes for the two engineers and 8 janitors working there.
