The objective of this study was to evaluate the importance of geographic origin and grazing system for Norwegian and Italian consumers" probability of buying lamb meat. The study consisted of a qualitative part with focus groups followed up with a quantitative survey in each country. Included in the survey was a conjoint design with origin of the meat (Norway, Italy and New Zealand) and pasture (lowland pasture and mountain pasture) as factors, plus questions about consumers" motives underlying selection of food. Results from the study shows that country of origin is important for consumers" buying probability of lamb meat, in both countries domestic meat was preferred. In addition, a higher probability of buying meat from lamb grazing on mountain pasture than from lamb grazing on lowland pasture was identified. It is important for producers of lamb meat to increase the communication of these elements in a competitive national and international food market

The Norwegian Public Road Adminstration (Statens vegvesen) is planning a new major road (E6) from Ringebu south to Otta in Gudbrandsdalen. A vegetation project for knowledge development concerning restoration and reestablishment of the vegetation were established in 2009, and accomplished by Bioforsk in cooperation with Vegetation adviser Tanaquil Enzensberger. Gudbrandsdalen with the river “Lågen” is a valley in the middle of southern Norway. The area belongs to the slightly continental section of south-boreal vegetation zone (Sb-C1), a phyto-geographical region which is rare in Norway and contains unique biological diversity. As an example we have the fern Diplazium sibiricum that grows in fertile hardwood forest and is classified as vulnerable (VU) on the National red list, the ligneous plant Salix triandra (VU) that grows on the river banks and the vascular plant Stellaria palustris (EN), prefering swamps on the fluvial-areas. In addition there are many threatened vascular plants connected to the cultural landscape, huge rocks with rare lichens and ravines with unique species communities in the forests. Climate, geology and vegetation of the area are described and different methods for conservation proposed. A method for decisions about which plant or plant communities to conserve by moving or propagation is suggested. Erosion, soil management, availability of phosphorus and nitrogen in the topsoil, alien and invasive species as well as restoration of wetlands are discussed. Five different methods for establishing vegetation are proposed. 1: Conventional sowing on cultivated and other disturbed sites. The seed mixture should be of local origin, but for the time being not accessable. 2: Natural revegetation from topsoil in forest areas, with the exception of forest soils high in plant nutrition, which requires special adjustments as mixing the soil with nutrient-poor forest soil or sowing. 3: Spontaneous revegetation without topsoil on one location with calcareous and coarse mineral soil and drought-tolerant vegetation, where the risk for contamination of weeds is low. 4: Donor-receptor method (“hay method”) for conservation of threatened seminatural meadows and creation of refuges for threatened plant species. 5: Vegetation-mat method (“turf roof method”) on one location with natural pasture containing vegetation of special interest. These five methods in combination with conservation of unique plants and plant communities will minimize the environmental impact of the road construction.

28 barnehageansatte fra Trondheim kom på et dagsbesøk til Tingvoll. Det ble holdt ulike undervisningsopplegg og gitt ideer til aktiviteter knyttet til økologisk skolehage. Temaer var etablering av skolehage, gjødsling, frø, planter, litteratur, kompost, plantearter og smådyr knyttet til hage og jord.
