LEP Environment 2004 Priority areas for agriculture Saarland

Description of priority areas for agriculture as part of the Environmental Development Plan. In priority areas for agriculture (VL), agricultural use is preceded by all other uses. The use of agricultural priority areas for the purposes of settlement activity (residential, industrial and commercial, services and leisure activities) is prohibited. It is based on areas collected in the framework of agricultural structural development planning. They include areas that are either of prime importance for food production due to their natural fertility or which, due to their location and land structure close to the farm, are viable for viable agricultural holdings.
