Management of root-vole localities
In march 2020 we removed young poplars from root-vole habitats in order to maintain favourable habitat status of this endemic species.
Water in the landscape: Restoration of Čalovecký Dudváh meanders
As a result of several historical events, the country of the Lower Rye Island has changed beyond recognition in a few decades. The mosaic of wetlands, river side arms and vegetation has been transformed into a lifeless chessboard of large monoculture fields. Today, even the last meanders of Čalovecký Dudváh river which once flew through the countryside are plowed to create even larger field units for easier harvest. All this is still hapening at a time when water is becoming increasingly scarce in the soil and throughout the country.
