The sign says "Countryside Area". 60 km/h is about 35 mph on this rural road. That's the highest speed limit I've known on a road which I've shared with drivers in the Netherlands, and you only share such a road where traffic volumes are very low.
For drivers this is a dead end road which goes to a nature reserve. However, cyclists have various bike paths that lead from it.
The sign shows what drivers might come across in the countryside. Tracttors, people, frogs (endangered here).
