Bioeconomy is based on the utilization and management of biological resources from land and
sea. The institute aims to contribute to food security and safety, sustainable resource
management, innovation, and value creation through research and knowledge production
within food, forestry, and other biobased industries. The institute aims to deliver research,
management support and knowledge for application in national emergency preparedness,
businesses and society at large. NIBIO aims to be the national leader in the development of
knowledge about the bioeconomy.
NIBIO is subject to the Ministry of Agriculture and Food as an administrative agency with
special authority and its own board. The head office is in Ås, just outside Oslo. The Institute has
several regional units and a branch office in Oslo.
The Norwegian Institute of Bioeconomy Research (NIBIO) was founded on July 1, 2015, as
a merger of the Norwegian Institute for Agricultural and Environmental Research (Bioforsk),
Norsk institutt for landbruksøkonomisk forskning (NILF), and the Norwegian Forest and
Landscape Institute.
