Mer og bedre grovfôr som basis for norsk kjøtt- og mjølkeproduksjon

Det totale potensialet for opptak av grovfôr hos drøvtyggere blir sjelden utnytta i norske husdyrproduksjoner. I dette prosjektet ønsker en å undersøke om det vil være lønnsomt å ta en større del av det i bruk ved å øke kvaliteten på grovfôret gjennom høs ting av gras og kløver på svært tidlige u...

AREAL-Areal- og naturbasert næringsutvikling

Turistbasert næringsvirksomhet i verneområder - muligheter og hindringer

Vern av natur til ulike formål blir ofte hevdet å gi positive muligheter for reiselivsbasert næringsutvikling, men grunneiers erfaring så langt har i liten grad bekreftet dette. Vernevedtak med tilhørende vernebestemmelser møter ofte motbør hos grunneiere da det fører til tap av næringsmulighete...

Waterflooding of carbonate reservoirs - Optimization and improved oil recovery

Oil recovery from carbonate reservoirs is more or less dictated by the wetting condition of the reservoir. Opposite to sandstone reservoirs, about 90% of the carbonate reservoirs are believed to be neutral to oil-wet. The oil properties described by the a cid and base number appeared to play an i...

Korrekt bestemmelse av kjøttprosent og nedskåret vare hos norske lam

EUROP ble innført i 1996 som klassifiseringssystem av slakt i Norge. De fleste land i Europa benytter dette systemet for klassifisering av slakt. Systemet er selve grunnlaget for den økonomiske relasjonen mellom produsent, slakting og foredling. Et godt s amsvar mellom nedskåret vare som foredlin...

Hurtige utsorteringsmetoder for råneslakt

Det er vedtatt i Stortinget at kastrering av gris ikke lenger vil være tillatt i Norge fra 2009. Problemet knyttet til produksjon av ukastrert hanngris er at en betydelig andel av slaktene vil være beheftet med uønsket rånelukt og rånesmak. Denne egenskap en er i hovedsak knyttet til slaktets inn...

Improved Oil Recovery in Heterogeneous Reservoirs

More than 50% of the oil is left behind after oil production is completed in most of the oil reservoirs on the Norwegian continental shelf. This is not acceptable in a global energy perspective. The single most important reason for such a low oil recovery is reservoir heterogeneities, i.e. varia...
