Research

Our research covers several research areas or themes in economics. In business administration, research is mainly conducted in decision-making and management, and rural entrepreneurship. In economics, research is conducted in environmental economics and agricultural and food sector policy and trade. We also have an analysis group that, on behalf of the government, carries out applied economic analysis of food and agricultural policy.

Our research groups

Applied Analysis

We work with applied analysis of food, agriculture, fishing and rural development. The group works closely with Lund University and together they form the research centre AgriFood Economics Centre.

Agricultural and Food Economics

Our research engages in interdisciplinary approaches to encompass the complexity and combine theoretical insights from the agricultural and food economics discipline with insights from other sciences, in particular the natural and behavioural sciences.

Decision-making and Managerial Behaviour

Every day, many decisions are made which affect the development of the agricultural sector and the rest of society. We are interested in how these decisions are made and what consequences they may have.

Entrepreneurship and Innovation for Sustainability

The research group's overall goal is to develop an understanding of the interaction between entrepreneurial activities and the contexts in which they take place.

Environmental Economics

Our main areas of research are policy design and evaluation, behavioral economics, transportation economics, trade and development economics, always in connection with environmental issues.
