Boeren met weidevogels: mozaiekbeheer op polderniveau, maatregelen ten gunste van het behoud van onze weidevogels

Conserving farmland waders through targeted habitat management and monitoring

or

Detail description

This infographic outlines 11 practical measures for farmers to make their pastures more nature-friendly for wader species and other farmland birds. Key actions include maintaining high water levels in margins, creating diverse grassland structures, using wild boar for natural mowing, implementing low-intensity grazing (1–3 cows/ha), protecting nests with undisturbed zones, and avoiding spring fertilization. The guide supports chick survival through careful mowing timing and field structure management, while drones aid monitoring.
