Rapport
Ressursheftet retter seg inn mot personer eller organisasjoner som ønsker å øke sin kunnskap om spredt arealgrunnlag i landbruket, effekter av dette og mulig omorganisering av arealer. Ut fra dette er målgruppen for heftet rådgivere i landbruket, landbruksmyndig-heter på ulike nivå, organisasjoner, samt bønder, eiere og andre berørte. Ressursheftet beskriver bl.a. hvordan bønder og eiere opplever problemet, hvordan en kan få oversikt over arealfordelingen i et område, effekter for økonomi, miljø og aktører (bønder, eiere m.m.), metoder for å sette temaet på dagsorden lokalt og lovgivning som virker inn.

Denne artikkelen er en situasjonsanalyse (Clarke, 2005; Clarke et al., 2018) av to jordvernsituasjoner i Trondheim og Toronto. I artikkelen identifiseres diskurser om jordvern i planprosessen «Kommuneplan Trondheim 2012-2024», mens Greenbeltplanen i Toronto diskuteres som en sammenlignende situasjon. Både i den norske og den canadiske situasjonen påvises diskurser på samfunnsnivå og mikronivådiskurser. I Trondheimssituasjonen beskriver artikkelen hvordan utbyggerinteresser rasjonaliserte nye boliger på matjord ved å gripe diskursen om klimagassutslipp fra transport og fortetting. Diskursen var her preget av målbare indikatorer for klimagassutslipp, som fungerte som en forenkling for å sammenligne alternativer. Jeg beskriver også lokalpolitikere som valgte å benytte kunnskap fra konsulentrapporter i stedet for utredninger fra kommunens egne planleggere, og prøver å vise at skatteinngang fra nye innbyggere som de potensielt kunne miste til nabokommunene, så ut til å veie tungt her. I Toronto viser jeg hvordan en nyliberal rasjonalisering av en rekke verdier ble brukt for å forankre jordvern, noe som også ser ut til å gi makt til videreføring av jordvernet.

Many countries have included agriculture as one of the sectors where they intend to obtain significant greenhouse gas emission reductions. In Norway, the dairy-beef sector, in particular, has been targeted for considerable emission cuts. Despite publicly expressed interest within the agricultural sector for reducing emissions, significant measures have yet to be implemented. In this paper, we draw on qualitative data from Norway when examining the extent the wider agri-food network around farmers promotes or restrains the transition toward low-emission agricultural production. A qualitative analysis based on interviews with key stakeholders from various parts of the agri-food network of dairy-beef indicates that, if it is up to the dairy-beef system itself, it will develop in the direction of continued increased production volumes and increased efficiency in production, combined with moderate measures to reduce emissions. There is an obvious reluctance to stimulate the consumer demand toward other products or meat products with reduced emissions because such a solution would complicate full exploitation of existing agricultural resources and hence could bring considerable negative economic consequences. Another factor limiting the scope and drive towards a low-carbon production is that the effects of various potential climate measures do not appear as unambiguous. Our study indicates that the dairy-beef sector will likely not reach the goal of reduced emissions from its own initiatives. Rather, significant changes would probably require both push and pull support from forces outside the agricultural system. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10460-020-10134-5
Doktoravhandling og hovedoppgaver
Avhandlingen «Jordvernets vilkår – mellom verdier og verdi. En empirisk studie av mening, kunnskap og makt i planlegging og politikk» er en artikkelsamling bestående av fem artikler og en innledning som binder artiklene sammen. Artiklene bygger på undersøkelser av jordvern i fire case: 1) Det historiske jordvernet i jordloven og endringer i denne, 2) jordvernet i kommuneplan Trondheim, som er avhandlingens dybdestudie, 3) jordvernets suksesshistorie Toronto som kontrastcase, og 4) jordvernet i organisasjonssfæren på nasjonalt nivå i Norge. Avhandlingen er en blanding av empiriske artikler, og en redegjørelse for hvordan vi kan tenke bredere om de prosessene som studeres.

It is argued that the pattern of landownership in Scotland is inequitable and inefficient, since the land (and its associated outputs) is concentrated in only a few, private hands. Critics argue that the scale of private landownership in Scotland maintains historical inequalities and injustices, and that alternative forms of land occupancy and smaller land holdings could lead to more productive land use and associated socio-economic benefits. With its rural political history of decentralization and multifunctional agriculture, Norway provides a fascinating and highly relevant comparison to the history of Scottish land ownership and land use policy, due in part to the similar population size, yet significant difference in the proportion of the population with a stake in land ownership management. The so-called “Norwegian model” (i.e. the pattern of land tenure, in tandem with rural and agricultural policies) is heralded as the goal for equitable landownership and sustainable land management that is the aspiration of Scottish policy-makers. This case study discusses the consequences of historic and potential future changes to the Norwegian model and implications for the comparative case of Scottish land reform, including the implementation of measures within the Land Reform (Scotland) Act 2016.

In December 2013, local politicians celebrated with a champagne toast as the municipality of Trondheim received permission from the Ministry of Local Government and Modernisation to develop 110 ha (272 acres) of high quality farmland for housing and business. The primary reason for this decision was the promotion of a more climate-friendly city. The land in question had been singled out as especially important for agriculture in previous planning processes. Based on documents, media texts and interviews, this article utilises situational analysis to scrutinise this puzzling political decision. It emphasises the importance of discourse in local decision making regarding scarce resources. Local interests and global issues are connected and made sense of in what Foucault (1972) called a “system of meaning”, which allows powerful economic interests and climate change mitigation measures to justify the permanent loss of farmland. As food production is invisible on the local political agenda, the re-implantation of multifunctional urban agriculture in the local food system could be a viable approach to slow further conversion of high quality farmland on the urban fringe.

Rural landscapes are the product of consumption for increasing numbers of tourists from urban areas. Many Nordic rural landscapes face a situation called spontaneous reforestation: as mowing and grazing have almost come to an end, scrub and trees thrive. The national tourism industry is concerned, leaning on the assumption that well-managed agricultural landscapes are central to Norway's touristic appeal. This article seeks to investigate how tourists understand and make sense of the landscapes they visit. It presents findings from qualitative interviews with 75 domestic and international tourists, conducted in three different study areas in Norway that are prone to spontaneous reforestation. The tourists were asked to describe the surrounding landscape and to reflect upon the meaning of the landscape and the different landscape elements. Manipulated photos of the past and probable future development were brought into the interview to aid reflection. A main finding is that landscape elements that the tourists perceive as threatened seem to be preferred over those experienced as plentiful. Another important finding is how the tourists in our study in different ways tend to make sense of the landscapes they visit through their understanding of their known landscapes. Lastly, we find that understandings of landscape change processes are embedded into wider discourses of nature and culture. Scandinavian Journal of Hospitality and Tourism 15:1-2, s. 29-47
