Tilskudd til drenering av jordbruksjord

This grant supports drainage of agricultural land in Rakkestad municipality, Norway. Good drainage is crucial for increasing food production in the coming years and is an important part of adapting agriculture to a changing climate with increased precipitation. Proper drainage reduces the risk of erosion from agricultural areas and thereby contributes to good water quality and a healthy aquatic environment. Well-drained soil also emits less nitrous oxide than waterlogged soil. Rakkestad municipality processes applications on a rolling basis with no application deadline. The program aims to improve agricultural productivity while supporting environmental sustainability through better land management practices.
