Landscape protection area extensive grassland north of Assinghausen
The extensive grassland conservation area north of Assinghausen, with an area of 11 hectares, is located northeast of Assinghausen in the city of Olsberg . The area was designated as a landscape protection area (LSG) by the district council of the Hochsauerlandkreis in 2004 with the Olsberg landscape plan .
The landscape protection area extensive grassland north of Assinghausen was designated as a landscape protection area of type C, meadow valleys and significant extensive grassland. In the landscape protection areas of type C of the landscape plan area, initial afforestation and the creation of new Christmas tree cultures, ornamental branches and tree nursery cultures are prohibited. Furthermore, there is a ban on converting grassland and fallow land into arable land or other forms of use. A maximum of two years of arable use within twelve years is permitted, provided that this prepares the renewal of the sward. This is considered an extended nursing shift . In the case of the extended care break , a minimum distance of 5 m from the central water bed must be maintained. For the cultivation of renewable raw materials, an exemption from the ban on plowing up grassland is possible as part of a case-by-case assessment.
Protection purpose
The designation was carried out to maintain, supplement and optimize a grassland biotope network system, in particular with the nature reserve designations in grassland. In this way, animals and plants should retain the opportunity to migrate and spread. Like the other type C landscape protection areas, this designation also serves as a buffer zone for adjacent nature protection areas.
