Primally in the norhern edge of the Pannonian bioregion and on its border with Carpathian and Continental bioregions, in 1 site also in Continental bioregion. Another fundamental objective will be the creation of a comprehensive system of habitat care during the project and the sustainability of care after the end of the project. Fulfilling this goal will take into account both the maximum recovery of traditional farming and the use of alternate procedures with the lowest entry costs.
