floodplain river NL 3.08PM 230216_0561

Ambient recording at the Maas river floodplains in Netherlands. 2PM in February.

Agriculture in the Dutch floodplains.

Changing weather: If there is no extreme rainfall, the farmer will start harvesting at the end of the summer. July 18th 2021 that failed as you can see in the photo below. The calm river was then wider than ever in summer. The city of Valkenburg in the south of The Netherlands was flooded these days.
