Nordic Agriculture Air and Climate
TemaNord 2015:570 TemaNord TemaNord 2015:570 TemaNord Ved Stranden 18 DK-1061 Copenhagen K www.norden.org Nordic agriculture air and climate Baseline and system analysis report Nordic agriculture air and climate This report constitutes the main outputs of the project “Pathways to a Nordic food system that contributes to reduced emissions of greenhouse gases and air pollutants.” The overall goals are to present the baseline data regarding the Nordic agricultural sector, its greenhouse gas and ammonia emissions, the regulatory framework and support systems, and conflicts of interest. The report aims to describe pathways to a Nordic food system that contributes to achieving the climate target of below 2 (or 1.5) degrees of warming and the air pollution target of zero exceedance of critical loads and critical levels regarding ammonia emissions. The Nordic region has diverse geological and climatic conditions that make certain types of agricultural production more vulnerable than others. The policy recommendations aim to serve as input to different policies at EU, Nordic and national level.

When Sweden invaded Poland, in June 1655, it went to war with an army which reflected not only the state’s military and cultural strengths but also its fiscal weaknesses. During 1655 the Swedes won great successes in Poland and captured most of the country. But a series of military decisions transformed the Swedish army from a concentrated, combined-arms force into a mobile but widely dispersed force. -

Towards the Kalmar Union
S P E C I A L I Z E D A G E N C I E S TOWARDS THE KALMAR UNION Dear Delegates, Welcome to the 31st Annual North American Model United Nations 2016 at the University of Toronto! On behalf of all of the staff at NAMUN, we welcome you to the Specialized Agency branch of the conference. I, and the rest of the committee staff are thrilled to have you be a delegate in Scandinavia during the High Middle Ages, taking on this challenging yet fascinating topic on the futures of the three Scandinavian Kingdoms in a time of despair, poverty, dependence and competitiveness. This will truly be a new committee experience, as you must really delve into the history of these Kingdoms and figure out how to cooperate with each other without sending everyone into their demise. To begin, in the Towards the Kalmar Union Specialized Agency, delegates will represent influential characters from Denmark, Norway and Sweden, which include prominent knights, monarchs, nobles, and important religious figures who dominate the political, military and economic scenes of their respective Kingdoms. The impending issues that will be discussed at the meeting in Kalmar, Sweden include the future of the Danish and Norwegian crowns after the death of the sole heir to the thrones, Olaf II. Here, two distant relatives to Valdemar IV have a claim to the throne and delegates will need to decide who will succeed to the throne. The second order of business is to discuss the growing German presence in Sweden, especially in major economic cities. -

Economic Impacts of Livestock Production in Sweden - an Input-Output Approach
Economic impacts of livestock production in Sweden - An input-output approach Gunnar Lindberg Helena Hansson Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU) Working Paper Series 2009/1 Department of Economics / Institutionen för ekonomi Uppsala 2009 ISSN 1401-4084 ISRN SLU-EKON-WPS-09/1—SE ii Economic impacts of livestock production in Sweden - An input-output approach © Gunnar Lindberg & Helena Hansson Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet Institutionen för ekonomi Box 7013 750 07 UPPSALA ISSN: 1401-4084 ISRN: SLU-EKON-WPS-09/01 -SE Tryck: SLU, Institutionen för ekonomi, Uppsala 2009. iii iv Executive summary This study uses a disaggregated input-output (IO) table of Sweden to assess the economic impacts of different production lines within Swedish agriculture. Focus has especially been placed on the differences between different types of livestock production and the differences between livestock and arable productions. Swedish agriculture was divided into the production lines, or sectors, cattle (milk and beef), pig, poultry and egg, sheep, mixed livestock production, cereals and mixed farm production, and the importance and potential of each one of them were assessed. To enable such a detailed analysis we first developed and applied a method for disaggregating the single agricultural account in the Swedish IO table. To do so we disaggregated the inputs and outputs of all production lines identified in the study. We used farm accounting data for Sweden together with sector specific data from Statistics Sweden and Agriwise to determine the purchases and sales of different farm types. Within the so called Make-Use framework of the IO table we allowed different farm types to produce more than one output to take the normal heterogeneity of farm production into consideration. -
Positive Trends in Organic Carbon Storage in Swedish Agricultural
1 Positive trends in organic carbon storage in Swedish 2 agricultural soils due to unexpected socio-economic drivers 3 4 Christopher Poeplau1, Martin A. Bolinder1, Jan Eriksson2, Mattias Lundblad2, 5 Thomas Kätterer1 6 7 1Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU), Department of Ecology, Box 7044, 75007 8 Uppsala, Sweden 9 2Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU), Department of Soil and Environment, Box 10 7014, 75007 Uppsala, Sweden 11 Correspondance: C.Poeplau ([email protected]) 12 Abstract 13 Soil organic carbon (SOC) plays a crucial role in the global carbon cycle as a potential sink or 14 source. Land management influences SOC storage, so the European Parliament decided in 2013 15 that changes in carbon stocks within a certain land use type, including arable land, must be 16 reported by all member countries in their national inventory reports for greenhouse gas 17 emissions. Here we show the temporal dynamics of SOC during the past two decades in Swedish 18 agricultural soils, based on soil inventories conducted in 1988-1997 (Inventory I), 2001-2007 19 (Inventory II) and from 2010 onwards (Inventory III), and link SOC changes with trends in 20 agricultural management. From Inventory I to Inventory II, SOC increased in 16 out of 21 21 Swedish counties, while from Inventory I to Inventory III it increased in 18 out of 21 counties. 22 Mean topsoil (0-20 cm) SOC concentration for the entire country increased from 2.48% C to 23 2.67% C (a relative increase of 7.7%, or 0.38% yr-1) over the whole period. -

Petri Karonen, Professor of Finnish History, University of Jyväskylä, Finland Introduction: Sweden, Russia and Finland 1808–1809 The break-up of the common realm two hundred years ago is now (2009) being commemorated in Finland and Sweden. Correspondingly, we could celebrate the birth of the autonomy of Finland or the joining of Finland to Russia, among other things.1 In any case, the reason to celebrate was in all aforementioned cases practically clear more than 200 years ago, although the factual closing point was the Peace Treaty of Hamina (sw. Fredrikshamn), signed in September, 1809. On the Finnish side the matter proceeded remarkably swiftly, for in Southern Finland there were regions where it was known already in March 1808 that the co-existence between Sweden and Finland drew to its close for their part.
