Recital 51
(51) Since farmland birds are well- known and widely recognised key indicators of the health of agricultural ecosystems, it is appropriate to set targets for their recovery. The obligation to achieve such targets would apply to Member States, not to individual farmers. Member States should achieve those targets by putting in place effective restoration measures on farmland and appropriate measures also in other ecosystems used by farmland birds for nesting and feeding, working with and supporting farmers and other stakeholders for their design and implementation on the ground. Since many farmland birds are migratory birds, cooperation at Union level and with third countries should be strengthened to improve the status of these populations.

In addition, Member States may put in place restoration measures to rewet organic soils that constitute drained peatlands under land uses other than agricultural use and peat extraction and count those rewetted areas as contributing, up to a maximum of 250%, to the achievement of the targets referred to in the first subparagraph, points (a), (b) and (c).
