    Lande-Værnet is a Danish organization whose aim is to preserve Danish farmland in Danish ownership. It was formed specifically to counteract significant German ownership of farmland in some Danish districts. The group operates chiefly through a credit union, financing the purchase of German-owned land. This label is almost certainly a propaganda label.
