The moist climate and heavy glacial soils favour the growth of grass. The farmer keeps cattle and sheep. The farmhouse is on the right and the new bungalow (left) has been built under the agricultural tenancy scheme for the use of the farmer's son and his family. Such houses can only be resold to people engaged in agriculture.
