Once your GLM8 requirement has been met, there is an option to apply for the \u201cBiodiversity and Sustainability\u201d bio-scheme. This offers an additional subsidy rate of DKK 2,740 and a further supplement of DKK 1,500 if you choose to establish pollinator fallow land.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You must comply with the GLM 8 requirement. You must apply for subsidies for at least 0.01 ha on the individual field and for at least 0.30 ha under the scheme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You may apply for biodiversity & sustainability for a maximum of 50% of your area for basic payment. You cannot apply for areas where there are already national or EU rules prohibiting you from cultivating the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What do I need to do to receive a subsidy?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Mowing fallow or field margins can be chosen, but there is also the option to establish the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flower brake<\/strong> \u2014 Strawberry and undersown flower mix at least every other year (at least two optional species of seed and nectar-rich plants per m\u00b2). The deadline for undersowing is 30 April.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pollinator insects<\/strong> \u2014 Strawberry plots and undersown flower mixtures at least every other year (at least three specific pollen- and nectar-rich plant species per m\u00b2). The deadline for undersowing is 30 April.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flowerbed edging<\/strong> \u2014 Strawberry and undersown flower mix at least every other year (at least two optional species of seed and nectar-rich plants per m\u00b2). The deadline for undersowing is 30 April.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No agricultural activity may be carried out on a small biotope. The area may consist of uncut grass, trees and bushes, or be wet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You must actively cultivate your land throughout the calendar year, as long as the cultivation is not for production purposes. Remember that biotopes under this scheme may be a maximum of 1 hectare in size, and must be marked on the map.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For flower strips, all our game cover mixtures can be used to meet the requirements. Several species are biennial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pollinator brake<\/strong> It is a requirement for a pollinator habitat that you use at least three different plant species, as set out in the specific plant species list. The following seed mixtures meet this requirement:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
