Rättvik Municipality has joined Swedish and Norwegian partners on a study visit to Norway under the SmartMat project.

What happened?

According to the municipality, the visit focused on digital grazing technology and summer farming. Participants gathered knowledge and experience that may inform continued work in Dalarna.

Location

Rättvik, Dalarna, Norge

Impact and significance

Technology, grazing practices and cross-border knowledge exchange may affect how local food production is planned. The visit is a learning step, however, and does not itself mean that a particular method will be introduced or production will increase.

Background

SmartMat provides the framework for cooperation between Swedish and Norwegian participants. The collected information does not state the project budget, participating farms, timetable for trials or the results to be measured.

Latest update

The study visit has been completed. Any practical next steps, pilot projects and funding decisions require confirmation in later information from Rättvik Municipality and the project. This summary is based on the cited public source and reflects the information available when WUA reviewed it on 23 August 2026. It does not replace current instructions from the responsible authority, municipality or organiser. If dates, times, conditions or implementation have changed, the latest information on the original page takes precedence. The headline and text have been editorially rewritten to separate verifiable facts from the source's own assessments. No information outside the cited material has been used to fill gaps; readers should follow the source links for full context. WUA checked the page title, date, location, amounts and status where available, but has not verified matters that the source leaves open, such as final costs, attendance, permits or future results. Time-sensitive details were checked against the source at review, but practical decisions must always rely on the responsible organisation's current notice. WUA does not accept registrations, applications, votes, payments or personal data for the services described and cannot confirm individual eligibility.
