Dans le cas des régions où l'agriculture recouvre la majorité du paysage, les bordures de champ riches en espèces végétales ont une grande importance pour le maintien de la biodiversité, florale et faunistique. C'est dans cette optique que la Confédération [suisse] prévoit pour 2008 l'introduction d'un nouveau type de surface de compensation écologique (SCE), nommé «ourlet». Cette surface se présente sous la forme d'une bande herbeuse, ensemencée avec un mélange de plantes indigènes. 1, record 1, French, - surface%20de%20compensation%20%C3%A9cologique
