What does it contain?
The Land Parcel Identification System (MePAR) is a nationwide GIS system serving as the basis for area-based agricultural subsidies. It provides a standardized framework for the identification, delineation and attribute data of agricultural land parcels (MePAR blocks). The erosion-risk layer was developed within the thematic water protection requirements of the zonally delineated AKG areas. These areas are subject to strict cultivation rules and requirements, including a ban on growing row crops posing an erosion risk, the establishment of erosion protection strips, sowing at prescribed row spacing, and the protection of plantations.
