Abstract

The Geographical Indications (GIs) scheme implemented by the European Union ensures the safeguarding of exceptional traditional agri food products that originate from specific demarcated regions. While this protection preserves the essence of tradition, it may also impede the adoption of innovative practices, which are considered crucial for bolstering competitiveness, sustainability, and resilience of the agri food sector . Th e paper examine s the influence of the GI scheme on innovation in the agrifood technological field at the territorial level by using Propensity Score and a dynamic staggered Difference in Difference s model. The time dimension of such effect is therefore the main focus of this paper. The analysis is conducted at the Italian municipalities level over the 1999 2020 period and distinguish es between agricultural and food processing stages along the supply chain. Results show an overall positive effect, which is mainly driven by the agricultural technological field and the effects in the long run.
