What happens on a farm when the power goes out for several days? Milking, feeding, water supply and refrigeration can come to a halt – and so can food production. This seminar explores how agriculture can keep production running during a crisis, and what Norwegian and European organisations are currently doing to strengthen agricultural preparedness.
Who is it for: Farmers, municipalities, County Governors, public authorities, researchers, suppliers, financial institutions, and anyone working with food preparedness, energy or agriculture.
