“…The authors suggest nourishing traditional practices with innovation to foster a sustainable product (Bowen & Zapata, 2009). On the contrary, positive effects can be found in the case study of the Sorana bean PGI by Belletti, Marescotti, and Brazzini (2017). Due to the GI label, the small geographical area producers benefitted from a higher selling price and were able to develop social activities, e.g.…”

“…Lacking economic pressure, the producers could also innovate production steps. All these impacts on the rural area show that the GI label is more than just a basic legal protection tool (Belletti et al, 2017). Furthermore, having strict PS with standards may lead to environmental protection.…”

The role of innovation without disrupting tradition is gaining importance within GI research. Next to maintaining competitiveness within niche markets, the topic of sustainability is put into focus by different GI stakeholders. This paper aims to shed light on the combination of tradition and innovation and their effects on long-term sustainability. A new framework was developed combining the concept of a GI entrepreneur, the TISyn model, and the Triple-Bottom line. It can be used for holistic research of GI agricultural productions while focusing not only on economic factors but also on social and environmental ones. Three protected designations of origin (PDO) products were researched as case studies using the framework: Stromberger Pflaume (Germany), Carciofo Spinoso di Sardegna (Italy), and Vlaams Brabantse tafeldruif (Belgium). The selection of these cases was based on a qualitative content analysis of GI documents, with the possibility of comparing different national and institutional contexts, while using products belonging to the same product class (fruits and vegetables). Furthermore, the selection was refined by the available empirical material and the willingness and ability of GI stakeholders to engage in topics investigated here. The comparative case study approach allows us to qualitatively assess differences between the dimensions of sustainability within different contexts. Thus, it will help build a new theory around the synergy of tradition and innovation within the GI scheme. The results can support new GI policy designs and their implementation, which may benefit all the GI stakeholders in the long-run.

Agricultural Geography

This entry charts the contribution of agricultural geography to the development of the broader discipline of human geography. From being an integral part of “traditional” human geography in the first half of the twentieth century, it embraced quantitative methods in the 1960s and 1970s, with several seminal contributions helping to shape the discipline at this time. Subsequently, new ideas and philosophies have been adopted, paralleling the emergence of significant changes within human geography. Contributions based on behavioral and political economy approaches in the 1980s and 1990s helped change the focus of agricultural geography away from relatively narrow concerns with production to a more holistic consideration of the broad agri‐food system. This has enabled new concepts to be developed and different questions to emerge relating to cultural, political, and environmental concerns, enabling agricultural geography to address major world problems. Among the concepts developed within agricultural geography, the principal ones highlighted here are food regimes, the transition from productivism to postproductivism to multifunctionality, and the so‐called agrarian question relating to the survival of family farming. The engagement with major problems at a global scale has produced distinctive contributions associated with notions of sustainable agriculture, long‐term legacies from colonialism such as the dual economy, and new relationships between the developed and developing worlds in the form of growing concerns about food security, “land grabs,” the financialization of agriculture, and climate change. The impacts of globalization are discussed, including the impacts of contested new technologies, such as genetically modified foods. Important contributions to the analysis of the impacts of various policies on the agri‐food system are recognized and highlighted. A long‐standing component of agricultural geography, namely the examination of evolving competition between different land uses, is also featured.
