About the course
Aim
The course aims at developing an understanding of the ecological principles and processes that form the basis for production in forestry, agriculture and fisheries. The students will also gain knowledge about economic conditions and laws important for production systems, and about principles for sustainable use of ecosystem services. When having successfully passed the course, the student should be able to:
- master basic ecological principles for biomass production within forestry, agriculture and fisheries, and how production is affected by changes in conditions.
- identify important economic, legislative and social factors that affect production systems in forestry, agriculture and fisheries.
- assess conflicting goals between production and other societal values (e.g. nature conservation).
- discuss environmental considerations in forestry, agriculture and fisheries with producers and other stakeholders.
Content
Ecological principles for biomass production in forestry, agriculture and fisheries. Basic principles of business economics. Evaluation of both ecological and economic sustainability of production systems. Development of innovative, ecologically sustainable production systems by integrating ecological knowledge with economic realities.
