      abstract = {The paper presents an evolutionary perspective on how  Agricultural Knowledge
and Innovation Systems (AKIS) have  adapted over time to new challenges and
technological  paradigm and trajectories. Starting from a conventional  science-based
approach and the robust empirical evidence  supporting it, the analysis highlights the
emergence of  some system failures and the need for new conceptualization  and design
of the AKIS. Particularly concentrating on  developed countries’ agenda, we then discuss
how, along  this evolutionary pattern, bioeconomy emerges as the  convergence
of traditional sectors as a result of these new  technological trajectories. Finally, some
implications for  the EU policies are drawn.},
