Decision making process in agriculture is fundamentally concerned with achieving integrated, productive and sustainable use of financial, biological and social capital at different levels. As our understanding and knowledge of the environmental and production resource base has improved, the need for integrated approaches to management has been more widely appreciated. The intensification of agr...
A model developed to analyze the environmental impacts of aquaculture and the productivity and ecological function of integrated aquaculture/agriculture systems was evaluated using sensitivity analysis and model validation methods. The validated model was used to identify priority areas for future research in integrated aquaculture/agriculture systems and to study the flow of nitrogen in these ...

How will Conversion to Organic Cereal Production Affect Carbon Stocks in Swedish Agricultural Soils?
Soil carbon changes were modelled over 30 years with the focus on cereal crops, since leys are often managed similarly in organic and conventional agriculture. Other crops were not considered due to difficulties in large-scale cropping of oilseed rape and potatoes organically because of pest problems. Four scenarios were used: 0%, 8% (current), 20% and 100% organic cereal production. Conversion...

The procedure of conversion of a farm commonly consists of three steps. In a first step, it is recommended to collect information on appropriate organic farming practices. In a second step, the most promising organic practices should be tried out on selected plots or fields to get familiar with. In a third step, only organic procedures should be implemented in the entire farm. Support from an e...
