Improving habitat opportunities for birds in arable- and grassland in Germany
Two Conservation Schemes
Within the framework of the EU project “Conservation of Birds in Agricultural Landscapes”, a total of 20 bird conservation schemes (bundles of measures) were developed in 10 Member States. A participatory approach was followed, which in Germany included two national workshops, interviews, repeated exchanges with several experts and stakeholders and the collection of comments. The two German Conservation Schemes focus on one target species each, namely lapwing and partridge, in the two agricultural systems arable land and grassland.
