BIODIVERSITY
With the "Respect the Butterfly" campaign in 2021, we raised DKK 42,500 to support a project on biodiversity in collaboration with Michael Kjerkegaard and Vejle municipality. For many years, Michael has worked with holistic grazing, where the cows graze in a system that gives the soil time to grow wild, and new plants and flowers a chance to emerge.
The fields are divided into many small paddocks, which are grazed by animals for a short time. The grass is then left to photosynthesize for 25-60 days, before the animals return and graze it. The mission is to make the soil more fertile and better able to retain water when the plants have time to develop a larger root network.
