Local farmers are required to undertake specific activities to conserve the environment, and they are prohibited from using scarecrows or flags to frighten birds away from feeding grounds.
The aim is to preserve the habitats of birds and other species. Farmers who incur losses of crops are subsidized by the government or nongovernmental organizations. "The triangle (the agreement) helps to achieve harmony between nature and human beings," Ng said.
