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.
