The Danish Rural Development Programme 2014 – 2020: Natureprojects on organogenic land: The purpose of the scheme is to convert arable, organogenic land into permanent grass and discontinue drainage so that the soil becomes wet.
This will enhance carbon sequestration because of the high carbon content in this soil type. In addition to soil carbon sequestration, GHG effects comprise reductions in nitrous oxide and methane emissions. Additional benefits are reduced nitrate leaching and ammonia evaporation.

The Danish Rural Development Programme 2014 – 2020: Grants for forest for biodiversity:
The purpose of the support scheme is to contribute to securing stable habitats for forest dwelling species, and maintain valuable natural environment in forests.
The support scheme priorities areas and species protected by the Habitat Directive to implement the Natura 2000 plans. The purpose of the support scheme is pursued by the following activities and investments such as:
• Extensive forestry (activity);
• Coppice forestry (activity);
• Forest gracing (investment and activity);
• Forest wetlands (investment and activity);
• Trees for natural decay (activity);
• Clearing of undesired growth (investment);
• Special efforts for protected species (investment).

The Danish Rural Development Programme 2014 – 2020: Targeted regulation of nitrogen: The subsidy aims to ensure that there is an improvement in the environmental condition of the coastal waters. You may therefore apply for grants to ensure the establishment of catch crops or alternative nitrogen-reducing measures, which are intended to prevent excess nitrogen from being discharged into the aquatic environment. The scheme must ensure a targeted effort in the areas where there is a need to reduce nitrogen emissions.

Environmentally efficient technologies represent a growth area with considerable employment and export potential. The promotion of and support for knowledge exchange and incentives for using new efficient technologies to overcome environmental problems and initiate new production can help the agricultural, forestry and food sectors to remain competitive. Businesses engaged in agriculture and forest holdings may therefore apply for the grants to enhance knowledge exchange and development of technology.
