Knowledge Agriculture Systems in Basilicata, Southern Italy
Agricultural knowledge and innovation have become known as strategic elements in the growth and development of organizations and local and regional territorial systems. In 2000, the European Union began focussing on political interventions to promote the knowledge system, and, in 2010, reinforced it with the “2020 European Strategy” for “smart” growth, based on knowledge and competitiveness, environmental “sustainability” and “inclusiveness” favouring employment and social cohesion [1]. Economic action enters into communities’ local social dynamics, usually through bottom up collective practices. The knowledge and innovation system in Basilicata, southern Italy is represented by a network of universities, research bodies, advisors, training providers, agricultural schools, forestries, farms, unions, etc. Interactive innovation was introduced in the 2007–2013 RDP using Measure 124 “Cooperation for the development of new products, processes and technology” a co evolutionary learning process between diverse actor typologies [2]. In 2016, the Basilicata region began the complex process of interactive innovation for agricultural productivity and sustainability through the Bioeconomic Cluster and European Innovation Project. On April 2017, the Basilicata Region published a public call for the “Support for the establishment and operation of the EIP OGs on productivity and sustainability of agriculture” and Bio-economic Cluster participated in order to introduce innovations in companies and rural territories. This study analyses the innovation projects and relationships between different actors through:
desk surveys of regional public calls, projects;
interviews with facilitators who participated in the analysis of innovation needs and the proposal for the establishment and management of OGs in the final phase.
