I allready tried this, as a result i get the the length of each channel but for the entire area – Klini Dec 3 at 10:55

Then you're not doing it correctly, most likely you dissolved the polygons. – Erik Dec 3 at 11:59

what i did is merge vector layer and I'm having all of attributes in the table. So I'm pretty sure that i did not dissolved them – Klini Dec 3 at 12:24

This is my layer of polygons and lines.
Then you use the tool "sum of line lengths"
The result is a new polygonal layer (the same as the one at the entrance) but with 2 new fields: the first indicating the line length that crosses the polygon and the second field the number of lines that cross it.
