Abstract

The provisions of Order No. 605 enable the Danish AgriFish Agency to regulate grant of subsidies for the maintenance of wetlands in agricultural and natural areas, as part of the Agency's projects for the construction of wetlands This Order partially amends this Order, in particular its introduction, whereby the implementation of Rural Development Act (No. 316 of 2007) provisions are now changed to articles 3, 5 (sect. 1-3) art. 7 (sect. 4) art. 11 (sect. 4), and pursuant to 5, sect. 1, No. 5 of Order No. 559 on the Danish AgriFish Agency's duties and powers. Amendments include the financial responsibility for assignment of areas. These must now undergo grazing within the period from 1 June to 31 August of the year of subsidy commitment. A reduction of financial assistance in adherence to art. 35 of Regulation (EU) No. 640/2014 shall now apply.
