Sammendrag
Of vital importance for future policy on the structure and development of
organic farming in Norway is how and to what extent we can improve the level
and stability of cereal yields in organic cash cropping systems with limited
access to organic nutrient sources, without compromising the major goal of
sustainability in organic farming. The project, which is one of four
sub-projects under Planteforsks strategic institute programme “Organic
cropping systems for higher and more stable cereal yields”, seeks solutions to
this task through a comprehensive agroecological analysis based on
component-oriented studies of major bottlenecks in organic cereal production
(poor soil structure, insufficient nitrogen supply and perennial weeds) and on
relevant information from other sources. A PhD student is being educated
within the subject of agroecology.
