The river valley is made wetter by meandering the stream, completely or partially interrupting drains and ditches and periodic flooding with stream water. At the same time, there will be an extensification of the agricultural use of the area. The project will reduce the emission of greenhouse gases by 3,000 tonnes of CO2 equivalents per year and the emission of nitrogen into the Limfjord by 19 tonnes per year. When the low-land project is completed, the municipality will use Life IP Natureman funds to try to optimize nature in the Natura 2000 area in cooperation with the local farmers.
