Originally, a knick probably served merely as a field boundary, but then also as a defensive hedge against the erosion of soil by storms and as a protective wall against enemy attacks in the event of war. – Today, there are an estimated 50,000 kilometers of kink in northern Germany. Its maintenance is partly stipulated in nature conservation regulations because the kink has considerable economic relevance, especially as a nesting site for many bird species useful for agriculture. – See dam fee, dike fee, mooring fee, set-aside premium, hardes fee.
