The Landbrukshgiskole (higher school of agriculture, of university rank) was founded in 1859 and has five departments: Horticulture, agriculture, dairying, forestry, and redistribution of intermixed holdings. The period of study is three years. In addition there is a state school for smallholders and a training school for house- wifery teachers. All these institutions have as their object the training of teachers and officials whose services will be employed in assisting the farming population. Further, Norway has the following training institutions: 35 schools for agriculturists, 7 for smallholders, 7 for horticul- turists, 5 for dairyfarmers, 4 for foresters, and 63 for housewifery teachers. All these schools are under the control of the Ministry of Agriculture. 136
