Mapping forestry and agroforestry innovations in Europe evidence from EIP-AGRI operational groups Operational Groups (OGs) under the European Innovation Partnership for Agricultural Productivity and Sustainability (EIP-AGRI) are key policy instrument for fostering multi-actor innovation in the forestry and agroforestry sectors. However, limited evidence exists on the thematic structure, distribution, and coordination of forestry and agroforestry innovations across Europe. This study addresses this gap by analysing innovations developed by forestry and agroforestry OGs within the Horizon Europe project FOREST4EU. Drawing on interviews, document analysis, and expert consultation, the study examines 175 innovations developed by 86 OGs across ten European countries. Innovations were classified by type (technological, process, product, service, organisational, and social) and analysed within five Inter-regional Topic Hubs (ITHUBs): wood mobilisation, climate change adaptation, sustainable forest management and ecosystem services, non-wood forest products, and agroforestry systems. Descriptive statistics, semantic analysis, network analysis, and thematic clustering were applied. Results show a predominance of technological and process innovations, highlighting the importance of digital tools, adaptive management practices, and operational optimisation. Four main innovation domains emerged across the ITHUBs: (i) digital forestry and data-driven management; (ii) climate adaptation and forest resilience; (iii) sustainable forest management and operational efficiency; and (iv) bioeconomy-oriented value chains. While wood mobilisation, climate adaptation, and ecosystem services showed substantial thematic overlap, non-wood forest products and agroforestry followed more specialised innovation pathways. Geographic patterns revealed distinct national innovation profiles shaped by ecological, institutional, and land-use contexts. Overall, the findings highlight a diverse yet interconnected forestry and agroforestry innovation ecosystem across Europe and provide insights to support future knowledge exchange and innovation policies. foresty agroforestry innovation wood mobilization ecosystem services silviculture non-wood forest products climate change adaptation gozdarstvo kmetijsko gozdarstvo inovacije operativna skupina EIP-AGRI mobilizacija lesa ekosistemske storitve gojenje gozdov nelesni gozdni proizvodi prilagajanje podnebnim spremembam true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2026-07-06 11:49:30 2026-07-06 11:49:35 2026-07-07 04:17:46 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2026 0 0 Str. 1-16 [article no.] ǂ101363 Vol. 26 2026 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 630*83 2666-7193 10.1016/j.tfp.2026.101363 283270915 RAZ_Giannetti_Francesca_2026.pdf RAZ_Giannetti_Francesca_2026.pdf 1 A070B55F53D3B72221927FED830DA8C9 96cd465c9cc87560ae20f37a808dfed46c0f5f390caeaa4f971fd2449d6c3d5d 104ff6d1-7920-11f1-9b0d-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=237094 https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666719326002165?via%3Dihub 1 e21ae7a7-791f-11f1-9b0d-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=237093 Biotehniška fakulteta 0 0 0
