Developing a demonstration model of a harvesting machine for wetlands

Supporting the development of a demonstration model of a new harvesting machine adapted to the environment of Danish wetlands.

Full Project description EN

(714.51 KB)

Project summary:

Meadows and river valleys need grazing from animals or to harvest the grass that grows there since delicate flowers, such as orchids, only stand a chance of survival if the high grass around them is removed.

The project supported the development and construction of a demonstration model of a completely new harvesting machine adapted to the environment of Danish wetlands.

Project results:

Created 4 new jobs in the micro company, as well as corresponding number of workplaces with local subcontractors.
Helped establish a network of local actors specialised in design, strength calculation, surface treatment, and mechanical innovation, which is expected to last in the future due to the expected commercial success.
Promoted the production of biogas.
