Further development of the agri-environmental indicator "High Nature Value Farmland" for Austria

Description

The indicator ‘High Nature Value Farmland’ (HNVF) describes the national stock of agricultural land with high natural value. These are characterized by their great biodiversity or by the presence of species with a high conservation interest. The coverage of such areas in Austria takes into account on the one hand the current distribution of use-related valuable biotope types and on the other hand reflects the current use of these areas. A comprehensive survey of domestic HNVF systems was carried out and suitable criteria were developed for recording the extent and location of agricultural areas with a high nature value. It turns out that HNVF is very well suited as an indicator for assessing the impact of the agri-environmental measures on biodiversity. ISBN
