The objective of the course is to give the students a knowledge about the agricultural conditions in the different Nordic countries, and to treate specific agricultural policy issues of common interest. The arrangment of the course is rotating among Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden.
 
Course Contents
The course consists partly of a written report and partly of a week course during the period of summer holidays where all the participants from the Nordic countries are gathered. The report should describe the conditions of the agricultural sector in the students own country with a special emphasis on the specific topics dealt with at the one week course. The report from each country is worked out by the team of participants from each country. All the reports are distributed to all the participants before the one week course. The idea is to give all the participants information beforehand, so that all the participants have the same information. The preparation of the reports give the opportunity of a more thorough treatment of the topic during the one week meeting.

During the one week course experts from the four countries will be lecturing and there will be group work.
