Entrepreneurship can be defined as the process of transformation of new economic opportunities into values in the markets. It has become the engine of economic and social development throughout the world. Rural areas have some fundamental disadvantages for enterprises and entrepreneurship: they provide less skilled labor, less non-traded inputs to industry and at a higher cost, and finally but perhaps most importantly, rural areas are less attractive in terms of access to knowledge and information than concentrations of industries and population.Often the actions for new entrepreneurship in rural areas are targeted to the production and use of natural resources e.g. in agriculture, fishery, forestry, processing and nature-based tourism. Rural areas also have some fundamental advantages for enterprises and entrepreneurship as they provide cheap location for the enterprises, good quality of life for the employees and reliable unskilled labor.Entrepreneurship policies can be divided into policies that support the demand or supply for entrepreneurial activities.The (i) demand side policies aim to elaborate the opportunities to engage actors in entrepreneurial activity. They include, for example, deregulation of entry in the markets, privatization of public services and promotion of firm linkages or clustering. The (ii) supply side policies focus on promoting the capabilities of individuals and firms and facilitating access to resources, for example, via education and training, incubators, micro-credits and other financial incentives and various promo-campaigns. Entrepreneurship policy can also (iii) change the risk-reward profile of an entrepreneur by shaping taxes, subsidies, labor market rules and bankruptcy regulations. The aim of this paper is to consolidate the knowledge on the applied entrepreneurship policies (i-iii) in forestry in Finland, Norway, Japan, Australia, the Philippines and the United States. Aside this, the paper aims for identifying research needs and gaps of knowledge on forest sector entrepreneurship to suggest approaches for future research.

Up to ca. 1960, the forest sector was the largest export sector in Norway. Since then its importance has decreased, until in 2003 the export value totalled only 2,5 % of the export sector. The import of forest products constituted a relatively higher share of the total import value than the export (about 3,3%). Pulp and paper, mainly newsprint, is the most important export product. The annual cut has declined 30 per cent over the last decade and in 2003 totalled about 7.5 million cubic metres. The reasons for this decline are not fully understood, but changes in ownership structure, low unemployment rates and good job opportunities outside of the forest sector and the abolition of cost-share programs are certainly some of the explanation. Private non industrial owners own 78,5 % of the forest area and the average size of a forest property is 57 hectares. Almost all fellings are certified, and there is an intensive ongoing debate on the need for protection of a larger forest area. There is a large potential for developing non-wood products and services, and the forest owners association have companies and organisations dealing with this. There is a demand from both domestic and foreign customers for non-wood products and services but the cooperation with the domestic tourist industry still has to be improved to coordinate this effectively. There is a weak entrepreneurship culture in the forest products industry, with a few regional exceptions. The culture is mainly production oriented and market competence and international orientation is needed. Compared with other industries in Norway the level of education is low in the forest products industry. A large public program was started in 2002 to stimulate innovation and competence building activities in the forest products sector.

Populærvitenskapelig – Forskningsprosjekt på remonterende jordbærsorter
Anita Sønsteby, Ola M. Heide
Sammendrag
Planteforsk Kise leder prosjektet "Studier av remonterende jordbærsorter for utvidet sesong og økte avlinger". Prosjektet startet i 2004 og skal avsluttes i 2007. Planteforsk er ansvarlig for prosjektet, med Universitetet for miljø- og biovitenskap som samarbeidspartner. Hensikten er å frembringe ny og grunnleggende kunnskap om bruk av remonterende (flergangsbærende) jordbærsorter hos oss, og å utvikle dyrkingsteknikker som forventes å gi grunnlag for en økt og mer forutsigbar produksjon av kvalitetsbær fra mai til september.

Utviklere av beslutningsstøttesystemer for landbruket i de nordiske landene; Danmark, Norge og Sverige har, sammen med kolleger i Japan og på New Zealand, blitt enige om å lage et felles data-fil-format for utveksling av landbruksmeteorologiske data i form av et XML-skjema. Hovedintensjonen med den standarden som foreslås, er til bruk i databaserte varslingssystemer for planteskadegjørere, både i tjener- og klient-applikasjoner. De nordiske landene ønsker også å dele ressurser med hensyn til beregningsoppgaver, eksempelvis benytte hverandres kontroll- og rekonstruksjons-rutiner for værdata og forsterke samarbeidet generelt. Drivkraften bak dette arbeidet er ønsket om øket kvalitet på beslutningsstøttesystemer såvel som deling av kostnader.
