subsidies should be changed and farmers will be paid for storing water on their
wetland meadows, or the future
financial perspectives of EU will not cover any
payments oriented at the grassland farming. As the latter is a way less possible and
further degradation of rivers in agricultural wetland landscape is to be expected,
WFD requirements should be emphasized in order to preserve as much rivers in a
as possible. The role of NGOs in this process is crucial.
