The Dairy business is changing a lot because of some scandals in the agricultural area
for example the BSE crises in Great Britain. Because of the scandals the food industry
and the farm association have created a certifying system; IP-Sigill Swedish standard
system.
We contacted Skånemejerier as they have been successful in the certifying area.
They asked us if we wanted to do a study in the certifying area of dairy farmers. At
Skånemejerier they gave us most of the literature in the area about certifying.
The result of the study, is that we have taken up the most common remark?s. The most
frequent remark is journal over routines in management of dairy cows on daily basis.
Another remark of the study is that the frequency of the remarks decreases with greater
production..
Boyd, Warden och slaget om Storbritannien : håller förhärskande luftmaktsteori vad den lovar?

Warden III teorier påSlaget om Storbritannien. Min avsikt med detta är inte att ställa Warden mot Boyd för attdärigenom pröva vilken av teorierna som framstår som bättre än den andra, utan metoden attpröva dessa på ett verkligt skeende syftar endast till att pröva dem var för sig.

The purpose of this thesis is to examine how the Viking age is described in textbooks and teaching aids in the countries Sweden and Great Britain. The examination is done through a text analysis, specifically called textbook or teaching aid analysis, where the content of the teaching aid is examined. A literature survey with thoughts and statements regarding the Viking age of writers and experts, from both countries, are included. This examine is also to answer the question whether the teaching aids are typical or infrequent in relation to each other inside the explicit country, but also between the countries. The result shows that the teaching aids in the main are typical in relation to each other. Some differences do exist and shows themselves in the choices of dispositions and layout, also in a few numbers of cases in the content. .
The Expedition in Pursuit of Rare Meats
The purpose of this paper is to bring a British mural painting that originated in England in the 1920?s into the limelight and introduce it to the Swedish public.

Betula : arter och sorter
As birch is one of the most common trees in Sweden, and probably one of the easiest for
someone who lives here to identify, it is interesting to note that most people do not know
how variable the genus is and how widely it is distributed across the northern hemisphere.
One can find birch growing at both high and low elevations, demanding different soil
conditions and preferring varying amounts of sunlight. Many people may also be surprised to
hear that the colour of the bark can vary from bight white to almost black, and different
shades of pink, orange and red can also be displayed. This, together with the astonishing
beauty of the genus, the important role as a pioneer in many ecological systems and the
difficulty in sorting out the taxonomy of the genus, constitutes the background of this thesis. The thesis is written at the Department of Landscape Development in Alnarp, Sweden with Kenneth Lorentzon, researcher at the Swedish University of Agriculture as a supervisor. The aim of this thesis is to highlight which species and cultivars within the genus Betula could be appropriate for horticultural use in Sweden.
Modern statssuveränitet En analys av hur synen på statssuveränitet har förändrats med Bosnien-Hercegovina som exempel
The purpose of this study is to analyze how the parties (USA, Great Britain, UN and the European Union) legitimize their intervention in Bosnia-Herzegovina as seen from without the conceptions of sovereignty and intervention. USA and the UN have legitimized their intervention on security reasons. The American president, George W. Bush, claimed that democracies never engage in war with each other and that democracies were prosperous just because they were democracies. According to the president, that is why it is important to democratise the whole Balkan region to protect the international community from terrorism which grows in unstable and undemocratic states.

We had a hermeneutic approach and consequently accomplished interviews and participant observations in the Lok Jumbish project in Rajasthan.
Kapitalstruktur i banker, en jämförelse mellan Storbritannien, Sverige och USA

This is one of the reasons that this thesis is focused on banks in particular, one other reason is that a lot of previous studies has chosen to exclude banks because of the fact that their balance sheet differ from non-financial companies. This thesis is a beginning in filling in the gap that exists in the knowledge of banks capital structure. Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to prove that it is possible to explain the capital structure in banks and that differences in the capital structure of the banks in Great Britain, Sweden and the United states of America exists. Method: The fact that our study is partly a replication of two earlier studies made a deductive approach most appropriate.
