Standarder utarbeidet av Norsk viltskadesenter ved Bioforsk Nord Tjøtta og godkjent av Direktoratet for naturforvaltning over de fire mest effektive forebyggende tiltakene mot rovviltskader på sau (rovviltsikkert gjerde, vokterhund, tidlig nedsanking, beredskapsareal) ble gjennomgått . Standardene inneholder en detaljert beskrivelse av de enkelte tiltak og en liste med minimumskrav som brukeren må følge dersom han/hun skal vær berettiget tilskudd.

Utmarksbeite kan gi like bra tilvekst og slaktevekt som innmarksbeite hos diekalv, men det er avhengig av beitesesong og kvaliteten til utmarksbeitet. Det var liten verknad av utmarksbeite på feittsyresamansetjinga av feittet i ytrefileten

Bilberry (Vaccinium myrtillus), also called European blueberry, is one of the most significant wild berries in the Nordic countries. The berries are recognized for their bioactive properties and distinctive aroma and flavor. The effects of climate on production and the quality of bilberries have been studied in a controlled experiment in a phytotrone using clonal material. In the experiment individual plants from two Northern clones and two Southern clones of bilberry have been grown at 12◦ and 18◦ C. At each temperature 3 different light treatments have been tested; 1) 24 hour (h) natural light (long day); 2) 24 h natural light with addition of red light and 3) 12 h light (short day). All plants were kept outside during flowering to ensure pollination by insects. Berries were sampled when ripe, weighed and stored at -80◦C for later analysis of carbohydrates, acids, phenols, anthocyanins and ascorbic acid. At 12◦C the two Northern clones produced the first ripe berries 5 weeks after pollination, while the two Southern clones needed an extra two weeks to ripening. This difference was most evident at the 24 hour day length treatment. At 18◦C both the Northern and Southern clones had ripe berries from 5 weeks after pollination. The results also indicate that the Northern clones produce better at long days, with and without addition of red light, compared to the Southern clones. The levels of fructose, glucose and sucrose are higher in berries developed at 12 than 18◦ C (means of all treatments and all clones). Also the level of citric acid, quinic acid, myo-inositol, gallic acid, cathecin, epigallocatechin, catechin derivates and quercetin are higher at the lowest temperature.

Colletotrichum acutatum is the causal agent of bitter rot in fruit crops (cherry, plum, apple, pear) and black spot in strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa). C. acutatum has also been isolated from a number of other cultivated and non-cultivated plant species; to date the fungus has been found on more than 25 different host species in Norway. The wide host range of C. acutatum necessitates research on the possibility of cross infection between alternative hosts and the potential of isolates of different origin to cause disease in strawberry. Planting healthy strawberry transplants adjacent to infected sweet cherry (Prunus avium) trees resulted in latent C. acutatum infections in the strawberry plants, indicating that cross infections between host species readily occur under field conditions. Molecular analyses (AFLP) have shown that isolates collected in Norway could be separated into three major phylogenetic groups in which isolates collected from either Prunus spp., Malus domestica or Fragaria × ananassa predominated. Two isolates from each of these groups were selected for experiments in vitro and in the field. Preliminary results indicate that isolates from all these groups are able to cause disease in strawberry, but that there may be differences in aggressiveness. In a field trial carried out in 2009 all six isolates caused symptoms in strawberry fruits when spore suspensions were applied three times during fruit development. The isolates from the Prunus group resulted in black spot on 42 and 53% of the strawberry fruits at harvest, while the corresponding numbers were 22 and 54% for the isolates from the Malus group, and 90 and 98% for the isolates from the Fragaria group.

The Altiplano is one of the most elevated areas populated in the world. At 3 500 - 4 000 m, low temperature, and other climatic conditions impose severe limitation for vegetable production. The average temperature levels and the daily amplitudes is a function of altitude, so vegetables are mainly produced in rustic greenhouses. NGOs in the Andean region have recommended cultivation of vegetables for consume and commercialization to enhance the well being of farmers. Plant parasitic nematodes or poor management have limited the vegetable production in rustic greenhouse. The Catholic University of Bolivia has a network of rural campuses "Unidades Académicas Campesinas" (UAC) for academic and practical teaching. Bioforsk has been involved in developing and strengthening the scientific basis in Plant Nematology in UAC-Tihauanaco. Farmers in Tiahuanaco experienced decreasing vegetable yields. In 1999 soil and plant samples from potato and other Andean crops were collected from greenhouses. All samples contained plant-parasitic nematodes. Twenty-one genera of plant-parasitic nematodes were found. The most frequent were potato cyst nematodes Globodera rostochiensis and the false root-knot nematode Nacobbus sp. (54 %), followed by lesion nematodes Pratylenchus spp. spiral Helicotylenchus sp. and Tylenchus sensu lato (41 %), ring nematodes Criconemella sp. (34 %), stunt nematodes Tylenchorhynchus spp. (29 %) and root-knot nematodes Meloidogyne sp. (19 %). The study indicated that plant-parasitic nematodes have a large impact on vegetable production. The knowledge of nematode species are of fundamental importance in the design of efficient management strategies, that would allow farmers to keep nematode population densities at levels below the threshold of economic damage. Management with crop rotation and the use of cultivars with resistance are important control measures, but require detailed information on the occurrence and density of nematode species.

Wood is a traditional building material but in general it underlies restrictions in outdoor applications due to its respective durability against microbiological decay. To face this problem, different impregnation systems are applied to enhance the materials\" servicelife. Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) is the most widely distributed pine in Eurasia and hence easily available. Despite of the previously defined good treatability of Scots pine sapwood, large differences in treatment performance are reported from industry. As process parameters are always adjusted to the material most difficult to treat, permeability variations in wood material are an economical problem. Therefore, it is important to understand the material in order to make a more reasonable material selection possible.....

The project addresses key constraints to agricultural production and soil productivity in Chitekwere, located in a relatively dry region of Malawi. The project laid strong emphasis on participatory approaches to technology development and adoption. At the Extension Planning Area (EPA) level interaction between farmers, researchers and extension resulted in the choice of 5 technologies which were to be on-station and on-farm tested. One hundred farmers were involved, each picking up a technology or two of her/his choice. Plots of 10 X 10 m were used for the trials, which were conducted during the rainy season. Yield data of Year 1 have shown promise for some of the technologies, but were not enough to draw conclusions. The trials are being repeated in Year 2. Project ends in September 2010.

The review confirms that feeding legume silage leads to higher DMI and milk production than grass. White clover is superior to red clover and red clover to lucerne in milk yield relative to intake. Milk fat content is lower on red clover than on grass diets and red clover yield milk with lower protein content than white clover and lucerne. Red clover yields milk with higher proportion of the fatty acids C18:2n-5 and C18:3n-3 than grass and higher content of equol than grass and white clover.
