Det danske landskab er blevet ændet af mennesker gennem årtusinder: fra jernalderens voldkransede og ard-pløjede market til vor tids storlandbrug, fredninger og økologiske landbrug. Selvom det danske landskab præges af de moderne udviklinger, peger mange strukturer langt tilbage i historien - som placeringen af de smukke løvskove, der har rødder mindst 3000 år tilbage.Denne bog følger ni danske landskabers historie gennem de sidste to årtusinder, og for første gang sættes der tal på, hvor meget skov, hede og opdyrket areal der var i denne periode. Det traditionelle kulturlandskabs opløsning efter år 1800 undersøges også, og der gives bud på, hvad disse ændringer har betydet for dyrs levesteder i landskabet. Danske landbruglandskaber gennem 2000 år er skrevet af 15 forskere, som har samarbejdet i det tværvidenskabelige projekt AGRAR 2000.

Strik til søs handler om norske fiskeres påklædning, fra 1700-tallet og frem til 1900-tallet. De traditionelle beklædningsdele har givet forfatterne inspiration til at lave nye opskrifter på strikkede sweatre, trøjer, huer, vanter, veste, strømper og undertøj – tilpasset nutidens kvinder og mænd.Bogen er ikke kun en opskriftbog. Den fortæller også om livet for datidens fisker og bonde, om hans familie og de vilkår, de levede under. Historiske kilder viser, hvilken beklædning fiskeren havde på, hvem der lavede den, og hvor den blev brugt.Opskrifterne i bogen er enkle, men ønsker du nye udfordringer, kan du lade dig inspirere til at sætte forskellige mønstre sammen og afprøve nye farvekombinationer. Strik fx en islænder i dine egne farver.

Kan du spotte afgrøderne på marken?Vi farer Danmark rundt på kryds og tværs. Fra bilruden ser vi marker, gårde, siloer, maskiner og dyr på markerne.

Eller fra toget, bussen, cyklen, motorcyklen, hesteryggen eller vandrestøvlerne. God tur!

Fiskeskipper Ole Basse Mortensen var en pioner inden for bornholmsk og dansk fiskeri. Da fiskerne i 1960'erne bliver presset af mindre fiskekvoter sejler Ole Basse i spidsen for at afprøve laksefiskeriet ud for Norges og Grønlands kyster. Fordrevet af politiske beslutninger vælger han, at satse på rejefiskeri ud for Vest- og Østgrønland, Svalbard og Canada og trawlere bliver større og større. Pionerånden sender også Ole til Sydatlanten, men da et udviklingsprojekt i Indonesien slår fejl, går Ole Basse Mortensen overraskende konkurs. Men han starter blot forfra igen. Ole Basse Mortensen var en ukuelig fisker, som kæmpede for sit erhvervs overlevelse. Han åbnede handelsforbindelsen til det lukkede Sovjet, han holdt møder med både fiskeri- og statsministre og han stod på talerstolen på Christiansborgs Slotsplads og talte om lige ret til havet. Sømilegrænser, kvoter og EF formede fremtiden for fiskerne, men Ole Basse holdt fast i sit motto: Jeg fisker ikke for at leve. Jeg lever for at fiske”

I den vestlige verden har vi stor tradition for at sendeudviklingsbistand til verdens brændpunkter, og det er selvfølgelig både vigtigt og nødvendigt. Men hvis du spørger Ole Stokholm Jepsen, skal det gribes anderledes an, hvis vi reelt vil gøre en forskel.Som landbrugsrådgiver har han rejst i det meste af verden, og med en finger i jorden vil han nu give sine anbefalinger til, hvordan vi kan løse nogle af de største globale udfordringer: migration, ligestilling, fødevare-sikkerhed og ikke mindst klimaændringerne.Vi har brug for et forpligtende langtidssamarbejde i forhold til ligestilling, aktivering af ungdommen og en styrket privat-sektor for at sikre økonomisk vækst, stabilitet og en bæredygtig fødevareproduktion

Fiskekvoter og fiskerigrænser er noget, som fanden har skabt. Det er de danske fiskere enige om i 1978. De er også i 1987 enige om, at fiskeriregulering er hul i hovedet. Derudover har fiskerne aldrig været enige om noget som helst andet. Fiskere er et stridbart folkefærd, og denne bog beskriver fiskernes kamp i maj 1978, hvor 400 fiskekuttere blokerer Københavns Havn, mens 300 kuttere blokerer yderligere 21 havne i Danmark. Trods den ulovlige blokade, er sympatien i befolkningen stor. 30-50.000 københavnere tager på søndagsudflugt på Langelinie og hører nysgerrigt fiskerne fortælle om deres hverdag, hvor de bare gerne vil fiske, men ikke må fange noget. De er fanget af dyre lån til redskaber og kuttere, og terminen skal snart betales. Dør fiskeriet, dør lokalområdet, men politikere, som statsminister Anker Jørgensen, vil ikke lade sig presse af denne selvbestaltede aktionsgruppe, men kun forhandle med fiskernes egne organisationer. Dem er fiskerne heller ikke tilfredse med, hvorfor blokaden også får følger i landets fiskeriforeninger i mange år efter. Faktisk helt frem til 1987, hvor der arrangeres endnu en demonstration ved Langelinie. Blokaderne ved Langelinie blev massivt dækket af de danske medier, og denne bog tager udgangspunkt i over 2.500 avisartikler og læserbreve. Tilsat interviews beskrives fiskeriets "gyldne år" i 1970'erne og 1980'erne, men også fiskeriets nedtur. En nedtur, som følge af en forfejlet fiskeripolitik i EF, dårlige forhandlinger med Østersølandene, samt fiskernes stadigt større kuttere – og havbiologernes bekymring for fiskebestandene.

This book focuses solely on the issues of agricultural productivity analysis with advanced modeling approaches bringing solutions to food-insecure regions of the world, especially in south and southeast Asia and in Africa. Advanced modeling tools and their use in regional planning provide an outstanding opportunity to help face the challenges of climate change. The sudden effect of flash floods, drought, salinity, and sea water rises causing saltwater intrusions and its impact on agricultural production are some of the disastrous results of climate change.In this edited volume, information on climate-induced impacts for flooding, flash floods, and drought impact on agricultural crops is provided to address possible solutions for food security in south Asia, southeast Asia, and some regions of Africa. Leading-edge research methodology is presented as it relates to remote sensing applications for regional science and allied fields. In regional policy planning, agriculture andforestry play key roles in food security along with environmental conservation and depend on geo-spatial variability. Satellite remote sensing and geographical information systems have an immense potential to encompass all these factors and to catalogue the regional variability of climate change and climate economics. In the satellite remote sensing domain, advanced modeling tools, deep learning applications, and cloud-based earth engines significantly increase the flexibility of decision making and its application for regional perspectives. The result can increase agricultural and forest productivity and ensure its resilience and sustainability.The book¿s chapters introduce modeling techniques such as machine learning and fuzzy expert system using satellite remote sensing datasets based on cloud application. These methods assist regional planners to increase crop production, land use, and detection of changes in land cover in order to better understand their vulnerability toclimate-related disaster. Furthermore, remote sensing and in-depth GIS analysis are integrated with machine learning to address natural uncertainties such as flash floods, droughts, and cyclones so that emergency responses for agricultural production management can be adopted more effectively.
