Bioforsk Organic Food and Farming coordinated a pilot project in the introduction of organic food in the public sector in Norway during 2002-06, when St.Olavs Hospital in Trondheim worked for and achieved a goal of 30 % organic food. Many papers, training manuals and a text book were produced, and many lectures were given about the activities already during the project period. Currently, many Norwegian municipalities are starting to introduce organic food in their kitchens, and hence the experiences learned at St.Olavs Hospital are very useful and attract much interest.

Abstract: Apple fruit moth Argyresthia conjugella (Zeller) (Lepidoptera: Argyresthiidae) is the most important insect pest in apples in Fennoscandia. Its principle host is the masting forest three rowan Sorbus aucuparia. Damage to apple occurs only in intermasting years when rowan produces low crop. A monitoring tool is needed to detect the timing of female migration to apple in order to precisely apply control measures. Volatile plant compounds may be used to trap migrating females searching for the alternative host during intermasting years. In this study we present data from field monitoring experiments. In 2007 we carried out a field test in apple with the aim to screen for behaviorally active compounds beside those already described by Bengtsson et al. (2006). In traps baited with three component blends we found four compounds that could be regarded as synergists. These compounds were in 2008 tested both in rowan and apple. We detected insects by both visual inspections and trapping in a rowan stand, whilst only traps baited with the candidate compounds could detect migrating insects in apple orchards. The number in apple however was low due to the fact that 2008 was a low-attack season and the majority of the moths remained in the rowan stands. Improvements of blend composition for field monitoring may be achieved by additional field tests in damage years in combination with ongoing wind tunnel studies.

 Effekter av traktorvekt, pløyedybde og kjøremåte under pløying ble undersøkt på to jordarter i et økologisk vekstskifte. Forsøksbehandlingene hadde relativt liten effekt på avling (sv. skörd), men djup pløying var ofte best bl.a. fordi det reduserte mengden rotugras. Både pløying med hjulene i fåra og bruk av tyngre traktorer hadde uheldige (sv. olyckliga) virkninger på jordstrukturen. Dekkdimensjoner,hjulbelastning og dekktrykk bør kombineres på en slik måte at jordpakking unngåsi dypere jordlag.

Dette er opprinnelig var dette en artikkel om sykehusmat skrevet for matkurs i forbindelse med omlegging til økologisk mat på St.Olavs hospital. Kurset tar for seg mathistorie og filosofi. Senere er artikkelen redigert og blitt publisert på www.agropub.no og i fagtidsskriftet Kjøkkenskriveren nr 6 2009

Mite damage is often considered a spray induced problem. We monitored 12 Norwegian strawberry fields, 6 organic and 6 conventional fields, by sampling leaves two times per year for two years. Young folded leaflets were visually inspected for eggs and adults of strawberry mite (Phytonemus pallidus) and completely unfolded leaves were used for extraction of mobile stages of two-spotted spider mite (Tetranychys urticae). The spider mites were examined for infection of the mite-pathogenic fungus Neozygites floridana. Predatory mites (Phytoseiidae) were recorded on both leaf types, and the females mounted and identified. We also sampled leaves from selected plants in the boundary vegetation of most fields, to look for sources of T. urticae, phytoseiids and N. floridana, and soil from each field, to study the natural occurrence of entomopathogenic nematodes. We will present the results on abundance and diversity of the organisms investigated, and discuss similarities and differences between organic and conventional fields.

How traps are placed can have huge consequences for trap efficiency. We present the results from two trials on how the height of trap deployment affects the catch of new generation Anthonomus rubi. In trial 1 (September 2006) we used white sticky traps, with or without A. rubi aggregation pheromone lures, to get more information on the height distribution at which weevils fly. Traps were horizontally mounted on top of poles 1 or 3 m above ground in a commercial field with a large weevil population (4 replicates of each height and lure combination). All the A. rubi individuals caught (N=34) were found on traps placed 1 m above ground. In trial 2 (13 July - 1 September 2009), four trap heights (partly dug into the ground, standing on the ground, hung just above foliage, hung 1 m above ground) were replicated five times in a small experimental strawberry field with severe bud damage. The traps were green funnel traps enhanced with white cross-vanes developed for raspberry beetle, and the best lure combination (aggregation pheromone sachet plus strawberry flower volatile open vial) for A. rubi found in other experiments. The traps touching the ground (and the plants), i.e. the first two of the heights listed above, caught 90% of all A. rubi trapped (N=103).
