Do I Need Permission to Fly Over Fields in Germany/Europe?

So is here anyone from Germany/europe? I thought that I theoretically need the agreement of the farmer to fly over is field. Did you speak with the owner or are they just chilled or have you never heard of that? Pls comment because I am a bit confused what I should do.

I m from Austria. You are allowed to fly over every farmers field without asking as the air above it doesn't belong to them. But you are not allowed to start or land your drone on those fields without permission of the owner. So if e.g. the road leading to the field is owned by the public than you can start/land it there without additional permission. But most farmers are chill.

If you know the owner of a field you like to fly I would ask the owner. So you can actually start/land on their property which makes life easier. I did this for 2 places I m flying at. Like I said most are chill. They fear that you destroy their fields. Which is justified if you crash and need to go searching in the middle of their field. So if you can convince them that you are careful then they most likely wont have any issues with even starting/landing on the edge of their properties. Have fun flying 🚀
