Local stakeholders? willingness to conduct actions enhancing a local population of Grey Partridge on Gotland ? an exploratory interview study
The population of Grey Partridge is decreasing worldwide as a result of anthropogenic activities. Increased agricultural production, requiring homogenous farming landscapes and increased use of pesticides are believed to be the main factor causing population declines in the Grey Partridge. Actions to enhance Grey Partridge populations are available; however, those actions are vain if the acceptance to conduct them is low. To gather information about acceptance among Farmers, hunters and the County Administrative Board towards 18 available actions enhancing the Grey Partridge population, nine face-to face interviews were conducted as an exploratory case study. The results showed that willingness to conduct enhancing actions differ between and within the groups of stakeholders.
Vilka är dagens krav på gårdsverkstaden? :
After been told that an ordinary winter service for our combine should cost more than
20000 SEK, not included spare parts, I decided to write this paper about today?s
requirement of the workshop on a farm. I think that the lack of proper premises is the
reason way not more of the ordinary machinery maintenance or upkeep is performed on
the farm.
When I did my literature survey I found that the Swedish environmental code, set by the
Swedish law regulate how drain or sewer should be built. The environmental code
however leaves a lot for your own interpretation. It might not be so bad but it must be
very hard for the local environmental office to interpretation the regulations, since they
are the ones that gives permission for the sewer in your workshop.

Bankernas bedömning av lantbrukskrediter : en jämförelse mellan olika branscher
The agricultural sector has historically seen stable prices and a relatively constant demand for its products. Companies within the sector have generally had few loans and large sums of money tied in assets. The profitability of the companies has on the other hand been low. Together these circumstances have determined the creditors? demands on the companies within the sector and have formed the rules and regulations that exist today.
Goat production in Laos and the potential of using Erythrina variegata as a feedstuff
Lao People?s Democratic Republic (PDR) is a country where the majority of the population works within the sector agriculture in one way or another. The number of goats are increasing and the animals can be an important income source for families. However, during the dry season, lack of feed is a great problem for the Farmers. Fodder trees have shown great potential as dry season feeding, due to that the trees often hold green and fresh leaves a long time into the season, compared to grass that dry out quickly.
Användarvänlighet i blötutfodring : enkätstudie för smågrisproducenter
It is possible to affect the feed costs in different ways. By steeping or fermentation the digestibility of the feed is improved for the animals with a natural process in the wet feeding system Steeping means that the feed is soaked some hours before feeding. This process activatesenzymes and improves the digestibility of for example phosphorus in the feed and make it more accessible to the animal. Wet feeding can be fermented or not. Fermentationmeans that the feed has been soaked for a certain length of time so that a biological process is started.
Glukosamin som fodertillskott till häst
In this report female Farmers use of technical equipment is investigated. There is little research made on this subject in Sweden, therefore this report can be seen as an explorative study. Research makes it clear that machinery, throughout history and even today, has been seen as a male area. Heavy machines are often associated with the same attributes as masculinity. Force, power, efficiency and control are some examples.
Effektiv mjölkproduktion : en fallstudie av effektiviteten i svenska, tyska och nederländska mjölkproducerande företag, samt en kartläggning av effektivitetspåverkande faktorer
In a time when milk producing farm businesses face decline in profitability it is of great importance to examine how the situation can be improved. This thesis is a study off efficiency in milk producing farm businesses represented by Swedish, Dutch and German farms. The aim of this study is to investigate whether any differences exist between companies in these countries. Moreover, the study includes a mapping of a number of factors that determine how efficient milk production can be managed. This mapping is based on a literature review on prior efficiency studies followed by qualitative interviews with milk production advisors as well as a questionnaire sent out to dairy Farmers in Sweden.
Det ekologiska steget : En studie kring hinder och drivkrafter för lantbrukares val att bedriva ekologisk livsmedelsproduktion i Östergötland
Denna studie syftar till att identifiera vad det är som driver eller hindrar lantbrukare i Östergötland att ställa om sitt lantbruk till ekologisk produktion och huruvida de identifierade påverkningsfaktorerna skiljer sig åt mellan konventionella och ekologiska lantbrukare. Semistrukturerade intervjuer med tre konventionella samt fyra ekologiska lantbrukare genomfördes för att undersöka deras erfarenheter. Respondenternas erfarenheter redovisas i sex identifierade teman; Gårdsspecifika förutsättningar, Ekonomi, Politik, Administration och regelverk, Miljö och hälsa samt Produktionsteknik. En jämförelse mellan de båda grupperna genomförs och det empiriska materialet ställs mot tidigare forskning. Resultatet av studien visar att skillnader mellan ekologiska och konventionella lantbrukares uppfattningar kring hinder och drivkrafter förekommer, men inte inom alla teman.
Vårtor på mjölkkornas spenar :
The reason why I choose the subject ?Warts on teats of Dairy Cows? was because the
herd I work with has big problems with skin-complaint on teats and udder.
So I found it interesting to try to find the reason why the cows look like they do and
even to find a way to relieve the trouble.
The examine work included both a literature research, an experimental test,
concerning a comparison of different teat sprays and also an inquiry-research about
the occurrence of warts in practical herds in order to collect as much facts as possible.
Three companies, selling different types of teat disinfectants, were willing to sponsor
the teat dipping experiment. The aim of the experiment was to see if any special
disinfectant had more pronounced healing effects on teat warts. The date for the
experiment was 18th December 2004 to 22nd January 2005, which was going to be 5
weeks.The experiment was carried out in the herd of Ola and Eskil Carlsson in
Fjärlöv, Hässleholm.
The three compared teat spray chemicals were; Nova Viri Sun, Nardosept, and
BlockadeTM. These chemicals were compared to one control group, which teats were
treated with the ordinary chemical normally used in the herd, i.e.
Produktkvalitet på svenskt nötkött : en kartläggning av kvalitetsfaktorer inom IP Sigill
Sigill Quality Systems has been certifying beef since the autumn of 2006 using the brand
name label Swedish Sigill. IP Sigill (the certifying system for integrated production)
encompasses the values: animal ethics, food safety, free range and environmental concerns. Product quality is not yet one of these values, and there is a variation in the quality of Swedish beef. Swedish Sigill wanted to investigate the factors that influence product quality, review which of the present regulations that have an influence on product quality and formulate new regulations with the purpose of enhancing the product quality (sensorial, technological and nutritional quality).
A survey of quality parameters and factors that influence product quality was done in order to establish a scientific foundation to work from.

Det svenska jordbrukets framtid :
The Common Agricultural Policy the European union´s common agreement about the
agriculture financial support. A major change is about to take place in the next 3 years. This
reform affects the first 15 members as well as the 10 new members in CAP2.
This study contains a future of how agriculture will look like in Sweden in 10 years. The
study is mainly based on interviews with key-persons3 in Sweden. The first part describes the
CAP-reform in theory, the second part the interviews and the last is a conclusion of the
material.
The future will see larger farm units.
The impact of climate change on agriculture in the Republic of Mauritius : a socio-econometric study on Mauritian farming
"Food security is a situation that exists when all people, at all times, have physical and economic access to sufficient, safe and nutritious food that meets their dietary needs and food preferences for an active and healthy life" (FAO Summit, 2003, pp. 28).Food insecurity is of concern regarding the Republic of Mauritius (ROM) since it is defined as a net food importing country. (Farming news, 2008). The impacts of climate change followed by their complexity could potentially have an increased risk effect upon the social and environmental welfare as well as the economic drivers in the ROM (www, UNESCO1, 2009). The primary victims when it comes to the impacts of climate change are the Mauritian agricultural producers since agriculture is highly dependent on climate stability, therefore affecting the yields of the producers.
