The Government Service for Land and Water Management (DLG)

The Government Service for Land and Water Management (DLG) is an agency of the Ministry of Agriculture, Nature and Food Quality (LNV). The DLG is committed to cooperation in finding solutions that satisfy the demands of local authorities and citizens, and which also take an area's specific features into account.

When developing open spaces for recreation, nature, water management and agriculture, we translate and implement abstract policy into tangible projects. To achieve this, we acquire land, redevelop it and then transfer it to administrative authorities and individual farmers.

We also pool various financial resources and have a detailed knowledge of available subsidies. Within a project, DLG works on behalf of several government authorities. Its extensive network of government authorities and organisations facilitates the realisation of these projects.
