NATURNAER-Natur og næring

Remote sensing of forest health

In this project we will try a range of remote sensing data types and methods in order to evaluate their ability to detect forest damage, to be used for early detection, and in general their suitability for a routine monitoring of forest health. We have a unique data set at hand, free of costs, fr...

Melk med forhøyet kvalitet som plattform for videre vekst

Melkeproduksjonen i Norge står for 45% av produksjonsverdien i husdyrbruket, mot 60% for 15 år siden. Lønnsomheten er under press. I områder med god tilgang på beite kan kostnadene reduseres betydelig ved å utnytte fôrressursene. Man tror at forbrukerne v il legge mer vekt på kvaliteten av melka,...
