Protection purpose

The general protection purpose is the "preservation of the character of the grassland used lowlands with flowing waters". In addition, the "wetland character of the lowlands of the Benser Tief s, Stuhlleide, Falster Tief, Burgschlootes, Reihertief and Bargsteder Tief should be secured in the long term". In order to achieve this goal, the areas should only be cultivated taking into account the requirements of meadow birds and the species-rich network of ditches should be maintained and developed.
