The Flemish Government ('Agentschap Onroerend Erfgoed') has published the new assessment framework for active farms in listed heritage (‘Afwegingskader actieve landbouwbedrijven in beschermd erfgoed’). The new assessment framework will be used to advise planning applications from farmers who want to carry out works on a listed building or in a listed landscape etc.

The assessment framework looks for a balanced solution for active farmers who continue farming within a listed heritage environment, with a view to the preservation of heritage values, scenic settings and the agricultural context.
