Giulio Cascone, Alessandro Scuderi, Paolo Guarnaccia, Giuseppe Timpanaro · 2024 · Journal of Cleaner Production

Summary. Living Labs represent an effective approach for developing agricultural innovations in rural areas.

The findings emphasize that successful agricultural Living Labs require examining how different actors interact and adapting flexible approaches to fit specific local agricultural contexts for sustainable development.
