1 Scenarios of future cereal production, ecological and economical consequences evaluated by simulation models using downscaled GCM scenarios for two regions in Norway Bleken, M.A., L.R. Bakken, L.E. Haugen, and P.K. Rørstad Norwegian University of Life Sciences (UMB), Department of Plant and Environmental Sciences 111

2 Warmer climate better opportunity for cereal production? How to exploit this opportunity? Possible consequences for the environment N dissipation C sequestration
