    Terwijl het reguliere pachtareaal al jaren daalt, is het areaal grijze pacht in de laatste 10 jaar juist toegenomen. Ook is de prijs per hectare van grijze pacht hoger dan voor reguliere pacht. Het Pachtnormenbesluit van 2001 wordt dit jaar vernieuwd, zowel qua berekeningsmethode als qua hoogte van de normen.

    Schiet het landschap- en natuurbeleid iets op met de nieuwe Wet ruimtelijke ordening? Vast staat dat de rol van de provincie versterkt wordt met nieuwe instrumenten en dat de nieuwe Wro een antwoord probeert te zijn op de schaalvergroting in de ruimtelijke ordening. Voor natuur en landschap is dat gunstig omdat daarmee het keurslijf van te krappe (bestemmings) plangebieden wordt open gebroken. Voorwaarde is wel dat de provincies het nieuwe instrumentarium daadwerkelijk gaan gebruiken

    Designers, architects and planners must begin to anticipate the far reaching changes we are facing in connection with climate change. What if we take action and actively participate in the transition from fossil-fuel driven society towards a more sustainable society? This Wageningen University paper intends to discuss some of the spatial opportunities and consequences of a sustainable energy transition in relation to climate change and depletion of fossil-fuels.

    Clay is a common lithology in the Dutch shallow subsurface. It is used in earth constructions such as dikes, and as raw material for the fabrication of bricks, roof tiles etc. We present a new national assessment of Dutch clay resources, as part of a project that provides mineral-occurrence information for land-use planning purposes. The assessment is based on a 3D geological model, which consists of voxel cells with lithological composition as primary attribute, and has been obtained by interpolating data of more than 380,000 digital borehole descriptions.

    LNV is opdrachtgever voor het beleidsondersteunend onderzoek dat door Wageningen Universiteit & Researchcentrum wordt uitgevoerd.. Sinds 2004 is het onderzoek samengebracht in negen clusters, waaronder: Vitaal Landelijk Gebied (VLG). Deze VLG rapportage geeft een thematisch overzicht van onderzoeksresultaten over 2006 (waaronder: bodem, water, klimaat, stad & platteland, landschap). Dit is het eerste jaarboek van het cluster Vitaal landelijk Gebied (VLG).

    Several recent reports on cropland soil organic carbon (SOC) stock changes throughout Europe indicate a general continuing loss of SOC from these soils. As most arable soils in Europe are not in an equilibrium situation because of past changes in land-use and management practices, shifts in both have been suggested to drive this decline of SOC stocks. A lack of data has prevented the unambiguous verification of the contribution of these factors to SOC loss.

    Several decades ago, the efforts of public administrations were concentrated on developing fisheries and aquaculture and ensuring growth in production and consumption. Then, in the 1980s, as many resources became fully or overexploited, the attention of policy-makers began to focus instead on fisheries management, in addition to development of aquaculture. Aquaculture continues to expand, while marine capture fisheries – when summed together worldwide – seem to have reached a ceiling.

    The performance of many canal irrigation delivery systems is unsatisfactory in terms of: (i) water resources management; (ii) service to irrigated agriculture; and (iii) costeffectiveness of infrastructure management. In recent years, participatory approaches and management transfer reforms have been promoted as part of the solution for more cost-effective and sustainable irrigation services. Large agency-managed systems have been turned over partially or completely to various types of management bodies. However, the results have usually been disappointing.

    Bioenergy sits at the intersection of three of the world’s great challenges - energy security, climate change, and poverty reduction - and has received an enormous amount of attention in the past few years. Joint work on these issues is vital considering that together, the G8 +5 Countries account for about 55 percent of the world’s population, 70+ percent of global GDP, and about 72 percent of world energy-related and industry CO2 emissions (excluding deforestation). Bioenergy statistics are inadequate and not up to date.

    Drainage of agricultural land is one of the most critical water management tools for the sustainability of productive cropping systems, as frequently this sustainability is extremely dependent on the control of waterlogging and soil salinization in the rootzone of most crops. On some agricultural lands, the natural drainage is sufficient to maintain high productivity. However, many others require improvements in surface and subsurface drainage in order to optimize land productivity, while maintaining the quality of soil resources.
