Regulatory bodies aim to protect consumers from harmful substances. The use of certain antibiotics is prohibited in food-producing animals in the EU due to their potential detrimental effects on humans. Among these are nitrofuran antibiotics, which degrade rapidly so that their metabolites are used as markers in screening for their illegal use. The use of one metabolite, semicarbazide (SEM), as a marker for detecting the antibiotic nitrofurazone, has been criticized due to the many pathways it can be formed by and its natural occurrence in some food items. A recent change in the reference point of action (RPA) for SEM, as stated in Commission Regulation (EU) 2019/1871, due to a reassessment of sensitivity of the analyses, poses a problem for the export of heather honey in Norway. Norwegian heather honey seems to exceed the lowered RPA in numerous cases. Here we show that Norwegian heather honey samples, but not polyfloral ‘summer’ honey samples from the same hives, contain SEM. The simplest explanation for the demonstrated pattern is a natural source of SEM in heather honey, not the use of a banned antibiotic. Based on our results, we propose that an exception to the EU regulation should be added, exempting heather honey derived from Calluna vulgaris unless other nitrofurans or their metabolites are found together with SEM.

This thesis aims to document, discuss, and get a deeper understanding of how heritage values and natural resources in the summer farming landscape interact and can be maintained for the future. The integrated relationship between food production, landscape, biodiversity, and traditional ecological knowledge has been the focus. Through a mixed method approach and by using qualitative and quantitative data in eight papers (Paper I-VIII), the study contributes to a collection of topics essential for a more integrated understanding of the traditional land use system and products and services provided to society. NO: Hovedformålet med denne avhandlingen har vært å dokumentere, diskutere, og øke forståelsen for samspillet mellom kulturarven og naturressursene i det norske seterlandskapet, og hvordan de kan ivaretas for framtida. Det har blitt satt et spesielt fokus på sammenhengene mellom matproduksjonen, landskapet, biodiversiteten, og den tradisjonelle økologiske kunnskapen. Ved hjelp av kvalitative og kvantitative data og metoder har åtte artikler (Paper I-VIII) gitt resultater som til sammen skaper en mer integrert forståelse av det norske seterlandskapet og de produkter og tjenester som seterbruket bidrar med til samfunnet.
