Abstract
The paper deals with the support system of geographical indications (GIs): more precisely, it aims at
investigating the territorial dynamics of the rural knowledge, by analysing the role of agricultur al
extension systems (AES) as tool to support farm’s management and innovation in GI areas. By putting
forward a milieu innovateur approach, we intend to verify eventual differences between GI and not GI
farms in knowledge transfer and innovation adoption. Interaction and learning logics at the basis of
this approach confirm differences even though with some exception based on territorial characteristics
and models of AES governance.
