Buffer zones reduce the speed of water surface run-off mitigating losses of erodedaggregates, soil particles, and particulate phosphorous and other soil bornepollutants. They also decrease the risk of freshly spread manure and pesticides toreach the water environment. Buffer zones are an especially important measure inareas with eroding problems. Buffer zones also provide conditions for biological andchemical transformation of pollutions as well as plant uptake.The buffer zones are under permanent plant cover of dense grass or vegetation.Buffer zones are situated on former agricultural land and have a width of 5-20 m.They are not allowed to be cultivated, fertilized or sprayed with herbicides orpesticides. The vegetation should be kept dense and plants should be established ifneeded for maintenance.Describe this measure in your country if different :341.

Åtgärder för minskadeutsläpp. Bilaga 2. Rapport 2010:10. Jordbruksverket, Jönköping. 189 sidor.Comments on why the goal is easy/difficult to reach, what are the most importantparameters in your country:It is possible to apply for subsidies today for grassland andthose 6-20 meters of strips next to water bodies, but it is not well utilized. From year 2010the farmer can apply for subsidies for having protection zones at fields with high risk of Plosses. However, no large utilization of this possibility is expected as the rules of how toplace the protection zone at the field can make the farming too complicated (Malgerydpersonal communication 2009).Is this measure regulated in legislation? No If “Yes”; national or regional rulesReference(s) to legislation:Comments:Is this measure entitled to economic subsidy?
