Thanks to drones, lapwing eggs do not end up in the lawn mowers of Eemland farmers

And that protection is paying off. Collective Eemland manages half of the 5000 hectares of farmland in Eemland. In addition to flying drones, Huijegens can also praise his own, because nowhere else in the country do the birds do as well as here, he says. “We are actually the only area where the black-tailed godwit and the lapwing grow again. We are overwhelmed with questions like: how do you do that? Yes, that’s wonderful.”
