This is a map of the likely distribution of HNV farmlandin the Republic of Ireland, based on the establishedEuropean indicators adapted for Ireland and weightings(based on expert opinion). The indicators used were semi-natural habitat cover, stocking density, hedgerowdensity, river and stream density, and soil diversity.
