International Natural Resource Management, with Nils Christoffersen

Nils Christoffersen comes from a long line of connection to land and natural resources. His family has operated the same farm in Norway for 22 generations. That's 600 years, folks, and it's still going strong. Nils' passion for working landscapes and the role of rural communities in their stewardship, has taken him around the globe. He's worked in ranching in Australia, farming in Israel, fishing and forestry in Norway, and forestry and wildlife in southern Africa. Nils is currently the Executive Director of Wallowa Resources, a non-profit that has played a large role in shaping my community by promoting education, healthy lands, and a strong rural economy. In this episode, Nils and I discuss some tough problems to solve, from our need for diverse crop production to the challenges in coexisting with wildlife.
