The aim of the project is to find ways to profitable and, thus, growing and economically sustainable Swedish lamb meat production using an expert panel of lamb producers, advisors and researchers. The project results in a number of suggestions for measures that can improve farm profitability, which are communicated to the industry through e.g. a web-based education material. Hence, the project creates conditions for more lamb entrepreneurs to be able to make a living on raising lambs, which contributes to the fulfilment of the Swedish food strategy to increase production and create growth and employment throughout the country as well as consumers' increased demand for Swedish lamb. Increased lamb production on i.e. semi-natural pasture would also contribute to meeting the Swedish environmental quality objectives “A Varied Agricultural Landscape” and “A Rich Diversity of Plant and Animal Life”.
Syftet med projektet är att söka vägar till lönsam och därmed växande och ekonomiskt hållbar svensk lammköttsproduktion med hjälp av en expertpanel bestående av lammproducenter, rådgivare och forskare. Projektet resulterar i ett antal förslag på åtgärder som kan förbättra fårgårdens lönsamhet. Resultaten kommuniceras till branschen genom bl.a. ett webbaserat utbildningsmaterial. Resultaten skapar förutsättningar för fler lantbrukare att leva på lammproduktion, vilket bidrar till att uppfylla den svenska livsmedelsstrategins mål att öka produktionen och skapa tillväxt och sysselsättning i hela landet liksom konsumenternas ökade efterfrågan på svenskt lammkött. Ökad lammproduktion på naturbetesmarker skulle också bidra till att uppfylla det svenska miljökvalitetsmålet ”Ett rikt odlingslandskap” och "Ett rikt växt- och djurliv".

Conventional technology is virtually unable to measure complete GHG budgets of drained organic soils, which may provide misleading results. So, global estimates of GHG emissions are based on coarse assumptions that don’t take into account the complexity of agroecosystems. Better data are needed for …
