Challenges and incentives for sustainable manure management in Russia

The Baltic Sea is threatened by eutrophication that largely is due to nutrient leaching from farmland within the catchment area. To solve this problem the surrounding countries cooperate within various configurations such as HELCOM and the EU-financed project Baltic Compass. Poor manure management in Russia has been discussed frequently the last couple of years. A literature review of different types of reports and legal acts is the core of this degree project which has been performed in connection to two ongoing research projects financed by EU (Baltic Compass) and SIDA. It is supplemented with interviews with Swedish agricultural consultants and travel reports from two occasions when I had the opportunity to discuss with Russians active within the agricultural sector. Different hypotheses were investigated and discussed. The environmental debate in Russia is quiet and there is a widespread approach that economic profit always trumps environmental concern ? a Soviet heritage that influence the Russian agriculture considerably. The Russian legal acts on stable manure management focus mainly on sanitary questions and only secondary on nutrient leaching.

Prognostisering av småbolagsindex

Analysarbetet av finansiella data i samband med prognostisering blir snabbt omfattande, både ur ett teoretiskt och ur ett empiriskt perspektiv. Prognosteorierna står mot varandra. Är marknaden starkt effektiv eller finns det prognosmöjligheter? Att genomföra en empirisk prognosstudie resulterar snabbt i krävande beräkningsintensiva prognosmodeller. Då prognoser för flera tidpunkter behövs så måste beräkningarna upprepas och använda olika delmängder av tidsserierna som beräkningsunderlag.

Identifiering och reducering av köer i samband med återbesök

Purpose ? The purpose of this thesis is to develop a total cost model for container transports and create a tool that calculates a suitable transport quantity from an economic view, which fulfills the demands on delivery service. To achieve this purpose the following questions will be answered:Which costs are affected by the decision between the two transport alternatives LCL and FCL?   How does the decision of sending product LCL or FCL influence the delivery service?  How can a tool be constructed to simplify the decision-making process regarding the choice of sending products LCL or FCL?  Method ? A total cost model was developed. This model is supported from existing literature.

En diabetikers val- En ekonomisk analys utifrån Grossmans teori om hälsoinvestering

Sammanfattning Syfte: Diabetes är en växande folksjukdom och år 2000 rapporterade Världshälsoorganisationen (WHO) att 171 miljoner har diagnosen diabetes mellitus. Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka en diabetikers val av utbildning, yrke, pension, fritid och investering av hälsa. För att få en förklaring till om valen är olika för diabetiker och ickediabetiker undersöks möjliga bakomliggande faktorer, framförallt effekten av den individuella hälsoinvesteringen. Metod: För att utreda diabetikerns val analyseras besluten utifrån Michael Grossmans teori om efterfråga på hälsa och effekten av individens egna hälsoinvesteringen. För att ta fram eventuella bakomliggande faktorer används Gary Beckers ekonomiska teorier om humankapital och Follands (et al, 2004) framställning av försäkringsteorin.

Corporate Social Resopnsibility : ur ett sydafrikanskt nationellt perspektiv

I och med att globalisering ökar i världen, kan det vara av vikt för företag att se över sitt ar-bete med frågor som går under begrepp så som Global Compact och Corporate Social Re-sponsibility (CSR) samt att ha kunskap i hur samarbete kan ske på olika nivåer i företaget med hjälp av Non Governmental Organizations (NGO). Denna uppsats har valt att tolka be-greppet CSR utifrån de tio principerna i FN:s Global Compact. När ett företag arbetar enligt dessa principer ställs krav på rapportering av hur principerna tillämpas och vilka effekterna blir, vilket skapar goda normer för hur andra företag bör arbeta med dessa frågor. Det finns olika sätt att mäta detta arbete på.Syftet med denna uppsats har varit att ta reda på hur företag i Sydafrika arbetar och agerar vad gäller frågor relaterade till CSR. För att uppfylla syftet ställdes följande frågor; på vilket sätt arbetar företag i Sydafrika med frågor som omfattas av begreppet CSR samt vilka är de främs-ta hindren för att Sydafrikanska företag skall kunna fortsätta implementera CSR i sin verk-samhet? En kvantitativ studie med kvalitativa inslag har genomförts.
