Agricultural Climate and Energy Center

Solutions for less
greenhouse gas emissions from the farm

Our goal is the zero-emission farm! We will test and demonstrate how farmers can reduce greenhouse gas emissions from fields and barns, how carbon can be stored and how we can reduce greenhouse gas emissions from farm buildings and from energy use.

The Agricultural Climate and Energy Center shall be a place where practical climate solutions are developed, tested and disseminated, but also a network of R&D environments for the agricultural industry, administration and business sector regionally and nationally.

The road to the zero-emission farm

Mære Agricultural School has set a goal to become a Zero Emissions Farm, but is it possible? In a series of films, we will show how we can reduce greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture with small steps.

The climate game

Check how much you can reduce your emissions

Curious about how much you can reduce greenhouse gas emissions from your own farm? In the climate game, you can choose production and production volume and find out how one or more measures reduce greenhouse gas emissions from this farm. Join us and explore how close we can get to zero emissions!

Our goals for greener agriculture:

More climate-smart agronomy

Good agronomy is climate smart. We test, demonstrate and share knowledge about climate smart agronomy.

The farm as an energy supplier

Producing your own energy is both climate-smart and profitable! Together we are looking for new opportunities for farmers.

Innovations related to climate and energy

We collaborate with farmers, businesses and researchers to promote new climate-smart technologies and services.

A better education

Good knowledge is crucial for good climate decisions. At Mære we educate the green heroes of the future!
