He was elected to the Norwegian Parliament from Nord-Trøndelag in 1945, and was re-elected on six occasions.

On the local level he was a member of the executive committee of the municipal council for Frol Municipality from 1933 to 1949, except for the years 1940–1945 during the German occupation of Norway, and later a member of the municipal council of Levanger Municipality from 1959 to 1967. His political career ended with the position of County Governor of Nord-Trøndelag, which he held from 1971 to 1979.

Outside politics, he worked as a journalist in Arbeider-Avisen from 1937 to 1940, and was editor-in-chief of Hardanger Folkeblad from 1940 to 1941. From 1935 to 1940 he also worked as a farmer; he had no formal qualifications in the field of agriculture prior to becoming Minister of Agriculture.^[1]
