PROJEKT: Restoration and management of Danube floodplain habitats
Few weeks before Christmas we managed to install a barrier against motor vehicles which we placed on deserted field road in the edge of National Natural Reserve Apálsky ostrov near the Komárno town (SKUEV Dolnovážske luhy). It´s purpose is to block the access of motor vehicles into the reserve. Due to this measurement the road could be accessible for machines that will help us maintain a rare habitat – lowland meadows – which is included in the project activity C5 – Restoration of lowland meadows and non-forest habitats. Before Christmas one part of the meadows was milled and mulched. It is also planned to mow the meadows once a year to support native species growing on the meadows.
