Abstract
This article aims to survey the state of the art on Technological and/or Process Innovation with a focus on Organic Agriculture, through a systematic literature review (SLR), classified as exploratory, descriptive and with a qualitative approach. For this purpose, the protocol described by Cronin et al. (2008) was used. After applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 29 articles were selected and analyzed in the Web of Science database. The results indicated a predominance of theoretical-empirical research that integrates qualitative and quantitative approaches. Additionally, the main authors were mapped, as well as institutions and journals with the highest number of publications in the researched area. It was evident that the authors Leila Amaral Gontijo (UFSC), Larissa Maas (UFSC) and Rosane Malvestiti (UFSC) are the ones that most appear in the list among the 29 articles examined in the research. The most prominent institution in the publications is the Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC). Content analysis indicated that innovation ecosystems can be built through a dense network of relationships, which helps in the development and dissemination of knowledge combined with a strong sense of territoriality. Finally, an agenda for future research is presented for advances in this field of knowledge.
