Nordic Partnership in Soil Health and Agroecology

NORSØK will participate and disseminate from a Nordic network (TerraNordica) within soil health and agroecology, led by NIBIO.

Nordic cooperation
The project will discuss important indicators for soil health and discuss threshold values for these within Nordic countries productions and soils.

Dissemination
NORSØK will contribute with experience from methods and indicators for assessing soil health at farm level. We will also disseminate Nordic methods and activities in soil health that are relevant under Norwegian conditions and for Norwegian organic farmers.

Meetings
NORSØK will participate in online workshops and a physical meeting, where researchers and advisors will discuss soil health and how different Nordic agroecological/ecological approaches affect soil health and how we can investigate and measure soil health in research and practice.
