The BUNDE WISCHEN association runs a herd of 420 Galloway cattle on at least 700 hectares of pasture in northern Schleswig-Holstein, Germany. The article gives four examples of the grazing projects run by BUNDE WISCHEN. After 14 years of experience it is evident that extensive grazing is a useful management tool to protect endangered grasslands in northern Germany. As a side effect of grazing, meat production and tourism could help to finance nature conservation.
