Agricultural structural upgrades – ecological measures

Ecological measures form part of soil improvement measures. Since melioration projects (road construction, decontaminating runoff, etc.) mean intervening in cultivated land, this can have a negative impact on existing habitats and the role they play for flora and fauna. Ecological compensation is a fundamental mandate of federal legislation and is also deemed a condition for government subsidies. The creation of additional ecological elements is also supported. Ecological measures are generally implemented in areas reserved for promoting biodiversity, with the aim of preserving, upgrading and enhancing the existing semi-natural habitats. These measures can be constructional (e.g. stream channel reopening, creating habitats) or simply affect the specific use (e.g. on rough pasture).
