Welcome to the 43rd edition of the IHSG newsletter.

I would like to introduce Jason Trethewey as new IHSG newsletter editor. Athole Marshall informed me in spring, that he wanted to resign as the newsletter editor. On behalf of IHSG I want to thank Athole for all the work he has put into the newsletter since he became editor in 1998. “Thank you very much, Athole”.

2007.08.14 IHSG greetings from Norway

It is now almost two months since you left Landvik for Denmark. Since then we have had more than 250 mm of rainfall - indeed a very difficult harvest season. For more than a week, Hans Johan Kjølsrød, the president for Norwegian seed growers and host for your Norwegian barbeque night, had almost 30 ha of his Poa pratensis seed crops and even more of his potatoes under water, as Lågen, one of the main rivers in eastern Norway, was about 2m higher than usual.

2007.06.27 IHSG 6th Conference - Letter of thanks

Thank you very much for participating in the 6th IHSG conference. I hope that you all had a safe trip back home, although I know, some are still enjoying 'the summer weather' of Europe. Considering the many comments I have received from you I think 'we did quite well' during the scientific presentations, discussions and social events. It is my sincere hope that the group will continue to stimulate the exchange of ideas, results, information and foremost networking.

2007.06.07 IHSG Conference 2007 - Information News Letter

For most of you, time of departure for Norway only a few days ahead. Therefore, a couple of updates:

Arrival
About 15 of you have sent E-mail messages regarding your arrival time at Sandefjord airport. On arrival, you will be met by a person carrying an IHSG sign in the arrival hall. I encourage those who have not sent information to lars.havstad@bioforsk.no to do so, as we don't want to keep you waiting too long in the airport.
