Land/Country: Fylke/County: Norway Kommune/Municipality: Bergen Sted/Lokalitet: Godkjent / Approved Udaya Sekhar Nagothu Navn/name Navn/name Preface Stakeholder involvement in addressing problems related to natural resources management has been increasing both formally and through informal sources. In some countries, stakeholder and citizens involvement in addressing environmental and natural resource management problems has been made mandatory through legal provisions. Within EU there is now a growing tendency to promote stakeholder involvement in the WFD. In our project, though the response was moderate initially, we have seen an increased interest amongst stakeholders to take part in the discussions related to sediment issues within the Bergen Fjord. We have managed to establish a stakeholder panel within the project period, and currently they are being engaged by Bergen commune to discuss the various options/solutions to address the sediment problems.

Introduction The importance of stakeholder involvement and using stakeholder experiences to address problems that they are directly concerned with or affected by, is becoming increasingly important in recent years. In the EU region, there is an increasing focus on stakeholder involvement in management of natural resources, especially coastal ecosystems, lakes and rivers. At the EU level, efforts are being made to provide institutional and policy support for stakeholder involvement in water resources management. In Norway, the public are involved in taking decisions concerned with any major interventions such as changing the course of rivers, construction projects in natural areas. However, the stakeholders are not involved in the planning process, and in most cases their interests are not considered while planning such projects. Engaging stakeholders requires a good methodological approach that helps in bringing together the stakeholders, motivating them to actively participate and discuss the main concerns and ways to address them. This report summarizes the activities initiated in the “Sediment and Society” research project to engage stakeholders in Bergen harbour who are mainly concerned with contamination of the sediments in Byfjorden and the various options available for remediation. A stakeholder analysis (SA) approach was used to identify or map relevant stakeholders in Bergen relevant for sediment remediation measures in the fjord, identify their interests establish a stakeholder panel. “Stakeholder analysis can be defined as an approach for understanding a system by identifying the key actors or stakeholders in the system, and assessing their respective interest in that system” (Grimble et al. 1995, pp. 3–4). The importance of stakeholder analysis in understanding the complexity and compatibility problems between objectives and stakeholders was emphasized by Grimble and Wellard (1996). According to Pretty et.al. (1995) and Chambers (1997) stakeholder analysis is closely associated with participatory approaches and is often seen as a tool for effective management of natural resources through stakeholder participation. Stakeholder analysis is a useful tool in conflict management and has important roots in the social actor perspective in the sociology of development (Long, 1992). Stakeholders can be part of a management strategy if only they can agree on its Forfatter. Bioforsk Rapport vol. X nr. YY 200Z 4 goals, boundaries, membership, and usefulness (Röling and Wagemakers 1998). The first step thus in any SA is to identify the relevant stakeholders who would be involved in managing the problem or a system. In the “Sediment and Society” project (WP2), one of the tasks is to identify relevant stakeholders in Bergen Harbour, establish a stakeholder panel and use the panel in stakeholder mobilization. The question then is “Who is a stakeholder and in what situations is their role needed?”. Stakeholders are identified based on many factors. The most common methods include: the interest and influence of the stakeholder in the particular issue, or a resource. The knowledge about the system or resource and networks the stakeholder is involved within the system is valuable to the process. 2. Steps in Stakeholder Analysis

  • Bottlenecks in Organic Farming in Northern Norway
    Agronomy Research 7(Special issue II), 744–748, 2009 Bottlenecks in organic farming in Northern Norway I. Sturite Norwegian Institute for Agricultural and Environmental Research, Arctic Agriculture and Land Use Division, Tjøtta, N-8860, Norway; e-mail: [email protected] Abstract. In Norway, the goal of 15% organic food production within 2015 is too ambitious if the current growth rate of organic farmland is continued. Hence, a study of bottlenecks within organic farming systems in Northern Norway, and farmer’s preconditions to convert was conducted in spring 2007. A questionnaire was sent to certified and former certified organic farmers, and a control group of conventional farmers. For organic farmers the most important bottlenecks were public regulations and organic price premiums. Conventional farmers feared yield decrease, restricted forage availability and extra work. In 2008, interviews with selected farmers and officials in local municipalities were conducted to explore the reasons for large differences between certified organic farmland. Key words: conversion, farmer’s motives, organic farming, regional level INTRODUCTION According to official data in 2008, 5.1% of the agricultural area of Norway has been farmed organically (Debio1, 2009). This is far from the national goal of 15% organic food production and food consumption within 2015. On average, 7.9% organic farmers per year have dropped organic certification in Norway from 2002 to 2006 (Koesling et al., 2008). The reasons for that have been public regulations including standards for organic farming, agronomy, economy, and farm exit. In the Northern part of Norway, organic farming has been part of rural development and listed among priorities in strategic plans of counties.

    Bioforsk Rapport Bioforsk Report Vol. 8 Nr. 69 2013 Inventory of Norwegian grain production Data from three average- and three high yielding cereal farms located in the major grain producing areas of Norway Henriksen, T.M and Korsaeth, A. Bioforsk Øst Apelsvoll 1. FOREWORD Understanding the environmental impacts associated with our food production and consumption is a prerequisite for identifying pathways towards a sustainable future. In order to consider the overall environmental impacts of a certain food production system, it is recommended to include the whole production chain and quantify the various environmental impacts per unit produced. Life cycle assessment (LCA) is so far the most developed/well adapted product-oriented assessment method for this purpose. The goal of the present work was to obtain data that are needed in order to perform a LCA on Norwegian grain production, a so-called inventory. The present inventory is part of the project “Environmental impact and resource use efficiency of selected food production chains in Norway – a life cycle assessment (LCA) approach”, which focuses on environmental impacts and resource use efficiencies related to important food production chains in Norwegian agriculture. The project is funded by the Norwegian Research Council (program “Bionær”). The inventory contains information on the management of three average– and three high yielding, grain-producing farms with conventional management in Central, Central Southeast and Southeast Norway, and it describes the methodology used to calculate the environmental emissions occurring on the farms. The results of the LCA following this inventory is so far published in Roer et al. (2012), Korsaeth et al.

  • Norwegian Agriculture: Structure, Research and Policies
    ® The European Journal of Plant Science and Biotechnology ©2011 Global Science Books Norwegian Agriculture: Structure, Research and Policies Peder Lombnæs* • Olav Arne Bævre • Nils Vagstad Norwegian Institute for Agricultural and Environmental Research, Høgskoleveien 7, 1432 Ås, Norway Corresponding author : * [email protected] ABSTRACT Norway has a land area of 324.000 km2; 3% of the total land area is cultivated, which constitutes 1 million ha. Agricultural production takes place in all parts of the country under highly variable climatic conditions. Most of the cultivated land is used for grass (65%) and cereal (30%) production. Even if the size of the arable land has been mainly stabile the last decades, there have been a decreasing number of active farmers. The organisation of higher education and applied research in agriculture is divided between universities and research institutes. Bioforsk – the Norwegian Institute for Agricultural and Environmental Research – is a national research institute under the Norwegian Ministry of Agriculture and Food and it is the dominant institute in agricultural research. The main overall areas of competence in Bioforsk are agricultural and environmental research, and innovation based on the utilization of land resources. This includes research and development within (i): Multifunctional and sustainable agriculture including rural development, (ii): Plant science, plant protection and bio-technology, and (iii): Environmental protection and natural resource management. The Norwegian agricultural policy has close relationships with the regional policy, rural development and settlement at the countryside. There has been a long-term goal to maintain agriculture in all parts of the country. The agricultural policy has comprehensive systems of agricultural subsidies with little export and little import of competing agricultural products.

  • 23 International Symposium of the International
    FIRST ANNOUNCEMENT 23rd INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM OF THE INTERNATIONAL SCIENTIFIC CENTRE FOR FERTILIZERS Plant nutrition and fertilizer issues for the cold climates September 8-10, 2015 Son, Norway Jointly organized by: Norwegian Institute for Agricultural and Environmental Research, Bioforsk, Ås, Norway International Scientific Centre of Fertilizers (CIEC), Braunschweig, Germany Institute of Crop and Soil Science, Julius Kühn-Institut, Braunschweig, Germany Department of Plant and Environmental Sciences, Norwegian University of Life Sciences, Ås, Norway Institute for Environmental Sciences, Norwegian University of Life Sciences, Oslo, Norway Scope of the conference and research subjects welcomed This is the northernmost venue of a CIEC symposium and thus it is thematic dedicated to plant nutrition and fertilizer issues for the cold climates. Plant production in northern latitudes is characterized by a number of limiting factors such as short vegetation periods with harsh temperature conditions, and often also extreme soils, high in clay and organic matter. All these factors impede the efforts of plants to acquire water and nutrients and the utilization efficiency of fertilizers, particularly phosphorus fertilizers. Thus contributions on research about stress alleviating plant nutrition and technologies to improve fertilizer efficiency are highly welcome. The conference will concentrate on four major topics of global interest though the presentation of innovative data in fertilizer research is appreciated explicitly. These are Climate change and its impact on nutrient cycling in soils Soil organic matter and fertilizer issues Phosphorus recycling through fertilizers and Marine protection and fertilizer strategies (e.g. balanced fertilization and nutrient bookkeeping). In invited lectures Dr. Peter Dörsch (University of Life Sciences, Institute for Plant and Environment, Ås, Norway), Prof.
