    The issue of land use is among the most important in Europe. The volume presents the results of a study aimed at analyzing and describing the evolution of land use of agriculture firms in Italian municipalities on the basis of data from the last General Census of Agriculture (2000) and of an important study of the '60 years (Bandini). The author has used the most modern and innovative methods of statistical analysis to improve the reliability of results obtained in particular as regards the evaluation of the composition and break up of the Italian landscape mosaic in rural areas. In this context it is operated to the highest degree of disaggregation, i.e. on data from the 8081 Italian municipalities taking advantage of a single national database and with the advantage of being able to apply uniform criteria analysis for the entire country

    Il volume analizza il settore biotecnologico considerandolo non un semplice settore economico ma un orizzonte di ricerca dove molte discipline si incontrano. Tale orizzonte è in forte espansione grazie alla base interdisciplinare sempre più ampia. Il settore biotecnologico è caratterizzato da una miriade di piccole e medie aziende alle quali si affiancano realtà gigantesche. In tale contesto è impossibile distinguere dei confini tra le diverse realtà produttive in quanto questi ultimi sono estremamente dinamici. Le industrie biotecnologie definiscono quindi uno spazio ad alta intensità di conoscenza perché basato su capitale intellettuale e altri fondamentali asset come il network di relazioni, i marchi, i brevetti ecc. Per renderla feconda c’è bisogno di professionisti altamente qualificati, istituti di istruzione superiore affidabili, infrastrutture adeguate di ricerca e sviluppo, partnership, processi efficaci di trasferimento della conoscenza, procedure normative capaci di difendere la proprietà intellettuale, assicurare elevati standard di qualità e offrire prospettive di ritorno degli investimenti

    This paper defines the phenomenon of agritourism in Friuli Venezia Giulia (NE Italy) at the end of 2009, in the light of the multifunctionality of agritouristic farms and taking into account the land use. The proposed statistical approach to outline the situation includes (a) the classification of the variables linked to agritouristic supply to find the main supply types, (b) the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) in order to classify the regional agritourisms according to their supply and (c) the Canonical Correspondence Analysis (CCA) to investigate the relationships between agritouristic supply, agricultural land use and territory. Since the CCA is widely used only in social and environmental sciences, this work represents its first application in agribusiness field. The method becomes important during the agricultural policy planning processes because it provides decision makers with a means of rapid assessment of the relationships between rural supply and land uses on the territory

    Il boom del Distretto del Prosecco: immagine dell'utilità dell'inutile tra austerità e ripresa

    The industrial districts have given rise to a variety of biocultural paths, but in the post-industrial era these are continuously threatened by the trend towards product standardisation. Despite this, local districts are able to survive, albeit in a weakened state, with two possible effects: A) the risk of fading; B) the desirability of resilience. The Biocultural fingerprint of the Prosecco District (placed 3rd in the Intesa San Paolo ranking of Italian districts for 2008-2011) reveals that its clusters of municipalities are characterised by agricultural and eno-gastronomic excellence in both rural and urban contexts. Meanwhile, its tourist attractiveness index, owing to its lack of apparently "useless components" such as nature parks and protected areas, and cultural heritage, is relatively low. It follows that the marketing-image strategies devised for immediate profit appear to be insufficient at coping with the competition and ensuring a sustained level of development in the long term
