The co-occurrence of powdery mildew, Podosphaera aphanis, and the two-spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae, on strawberry plants requires a strategic use of fungicides to control powdery mildew without harming predatory mites and other beneficial organisms. Sulfur has been used for two centuries to manage powdery mildew and is the only fungicide approved for use in organic strawberry production in Norway. However, there are contrasting reports in the literature about the effect of sulfur on predatory mites and two-spotted spider mite from field studies. Controlled laboratory experiments were therefore conducted on strawberry leaf disks to study the main as well as the interacting effects of sulfur on P. aphanis, T. urticae and the predatory mite, Phytoseiulus persimilis. The following seven treatment combinations: 1) Sulfur + P. aphanis 2) Sulfur + T. urticae 3) Sulfur + P. persimilis 4) Sulfur + P.aphanis + P.persimilis 5) Sulfur + P.aphanis + T.urticae 6) Sulfur + P. Persimilis + T.urticae 7) Sulfur + P.aphanis + P.persimilis + T.urticae and seven parallel treatment combinations with water instead of sulfur (control) were used. Leaf disks were dipped in a sulfur (Thiovit Jet) solution or water and inoculated with P. aphanis after the sulfur/ water had dried on the leaf surface. In treatments with mites, five female T. urticae and one female P. persimilis were added per leaf disk. Preliminary analysis of the results showed that only the predatory mite and sulfur significantly (P ≤ 0.05) affected egg production and mortality of T. urticae. In the treatment that combined sulfur + P. aphanis + P. persimilis + T. urticae a significantly reduction in T. urticae egg production was seen. However, there was no significant effect on egg production and mortality of T. urticae in the three-way or two-way interactions of sulfur, powdery mildew and predatory mite. There was no significant effect of sulfur on mortality of P. persimilis, and sulfur did not seem to affect the efficiency of this predatory mite. Powdery mildew did not affect T. urticae probably because the mildew was not well developed due to inoculation at the same time as the mites were added. In another experiment, however, mites were released on leaf disks that had well developed powdery mildew, and here a negative effect of the mildew on T. urticae egg production was clearly seen.

The main objective of this experiment was to compare timothy and X-Festulolium varieties Felina and Felopa as forage for growing bulls. Thirty one-year-old Norwegian Red bulls were assigned to one of the three feeding groups by stratified block randomisation within weight in individual boxes and feeding. The forage was grown at Bioforsk"s research station in Bodø, (latitude: 67.28 °N), Norway, and harvested at a NDF content of 500 g/kg dry matter in the summer of 2008. The grass was ensiled in round balls and fed ad libitum. The bulls were fed a fixed amount of one kg of concentrate/day through the experiment. Animals were slaughtered at a live weight of 600 kg, and the slaughters were classified according to the EUROP system. The animals fed with timothy had an overall larger weight gain than the bulls fed with the X-Festulolium variants, though the weight gain decreased towards the end of the feeding period. The forage consumption in the timothy group was also larger. Grass type had no effect on the on the classification of the slaughters.
