Norway has a very good animal health and healthy plants. We have varied agriculture across the country. The food industry based on Norwegian produce is one of the largest mainland industries in the country. Altogether, almost 100,000 people work in connection with Norwegian food.

The labeling scheme Nyt Norge is managed by the independent Norwegian Food Foundation. The foundation was established by the Ministry of Agriculture and Food. The Norwegian Food Foundation is also responsible for the Quality System in Agriculture, which is an important part of Norwegian agriculture and a prerequisite for labeling products with Nyt Norge.
