Tilskudd til slåttprosjekt - bruk av drone for å redde rådyrkalver

This grant supports the purchase or operation of drone equipment for finding and rescuing roe deer calves before mowing in Lillestrøm municipality. The program aims to protect wildlife during agricultural operations by providing financial assistance for drone technology and operations specifically designed to locate roe deer calves hiding in fields before harvest. The grant can cover up to 50% of costs for drone equipment adapted for searching for roe deer calves, and up to NOK 50,000 for drone operations in the mowing project. In cases of many applications and limited funds, the best projects will be prioritized. Applicants must describe the organization of the drone search, including drone pilots and support staff, planned scope (area and number of days), geographic coverage within Lillestrøm municipality, and how adequate response time and capacity is ensured when grass producers make requests.
