Nordic Nitrogen and Agriculture by Anonim Pdf

Abstract: The Nordic countries have, during the last 20 years, introduced efficient measures to reduce nitrogen losses to the environment. Still, nitrogen losses from the agricultural sector are high. In this report we provide recommendations on strategies and policy instruments to achieve cost effective abatement of reactive nitrogen from agriculture in the Nordic countries.This report is based on a literature review. Additional input was also obtained from discussions at a workshop held in Gothenburg in January 2017. The workshop made it possible for experts from the four Nordic countries Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden to come together and discuss and compare policies and mitigation measures regarding nitrogen and agriculture. During the workshop we identified a number of policy challenges, policy actions and also knowledge gaps where further research is needed

Market analysis of organic foods in the Nordic and Baltic countries by Anna Pekala Pdf

The project was initiated in March 2019, deriving from a request from The Danish Veterinary and Food Administration who handles the project management on the Nordic-Baltic project ”Nordic Nutrition the Green Way”. The project is funded by the Nordic Working Group for Diet, Food & Toxicology (NKMT) under the Nordic Council of Ministers. The purpose of this report is to provide an overall picture of the organic food and beverage market in the Nordic and Baltic countries. This includes a review of historical developments within the sales of organic foods and beverages across the main sales channels, imports/exports and organic agricultural production. Furthermore, we give an overview of political incentives in the area of organic food, consumer profiles and attitudes, and provide an outlook on the future trends and expected developments within the Nordic countries. The report also includes an outlook for the Nordic region and globally towards 2030. Lastly, the report includes a link between organic food and the UN’s 2030 sustainability agenda and how the individual countries incorporate organic into their national strategies towards 2030. The market analysis covers the following countries: • Nordic countries: Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland and Iceland • Autonomous areas: The Faroe Islands, Åland Islands and Greenland • Baltic countries: Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania The market analysis is part of the project ”Nordic Nutrition the Green Way”, which aims at bringing together the Nordic and Baltic authorities and relevant private stakeholders in the field of organic production and consumption. The project addresses the idea of a sustainable and healthy diet for the population and strengthening the Nordic-Baltic identity on sustainability and branding of a greener and more organic Nordic-Baltic region.

Agriculture and the Environment in the Nordic Countries by Valborg Kvakkestad Pdf

Abstract: In the future, demand for agricultural products will increase. The agricultural sector must meet the increase in demand without compromising the natural resources of which it depends on and damage fragile ecosystems. Sustainable agricultural practices and green growth is necessary for this to happen and agricultural policy must facilitate such development. How agriculture contributes to water pollution has been in focus in the Nordic countries for many years. In many places, nutrient emissions have been successfully reduces, but targets are still not met. The implementation of the Water Framework Directive makes policies that facilitate reduction of nutrient runoff even more relevant than before. This report looks at experiences from the Nordic countries and makes suggestions for future policies for sustainable agriculture and green growth. The report has been commissioned by the Nordic Council of Ministers. The study was carried out by the Norwegian Agricultural Economics Research Institute (NILF)

Integrated Transboundary Water Management in Theory and Practice by Geoffrey D. Gooch,Per Stalnacke Pdf

This book will examine and analyse the problems inherent in integrated water management in transboundary conditions. Integrated Transboundary Water Management in Theory and Practice will provide new knowledge and policy recommendations based on the experiences and results of a major 3-year interdisciplinary research project (MANTRA-East). Drawing on extensive studies of the Lake Peipsi region in Estonia and Russia, the book explores the political and social issues surrounding transboundary water management and introduces the way that qualitative-quantitative-qualitative scenarios have been used in real-life situations. The book presents conclusions and policy recommendations for integrated transboundary water management that will be invaluable to water managers, policy-makers and academic researchers working in this rapidly expanding field.
