NATURE RESTORATION FOR THE RETENTION OF FLORA AND FAUNA

Project description:

As beautifully described by the Society for the Preservation of Nature in the Netherlands: Botshol Nature Reserve ‘a pearl among mires and fens’. Botshol is well-known for its narrow ditches, meadow ponds and its wealth of flora and fauna. We have carried out a diversity of activities as part of the nature restoration measures at Botshol. For example, to counter afforestation and alluviation in peatlands. Peat bogs were excavated, forested areas were cleared and reed lands were cut. The released material was pumped to the depot with the aid of a pressure pipeline. The area is now ready to continue to attract a tremendous diversity of flora and fauna over the coming years.
