Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin - Agrar- und Ernährungspolitik

In this paper we analyze the bioeconomy policy mix in Italy and conduct an integrative assessment of the resilience orientation of both nominal bioeconomy and agricultural policies. We find that agricultural policies are oriented toward robustness and adaptability, whereas bioeconomy policies predominantly address transformability but mostly at later stages in the supply chain.
