Special Issue Information:
Dear Colleagues,
In a world of strong dynamism and tensions in geopolitics, climate change, and resource scarcity, cross-border cooperation emerges as a vital mechanism to foster agricultural development and ensure food security. Border regions often share common environmental, economic, and social challenges, making coordinated agricultural strategies beneficial and essential.
Contextually, this Special Issue aims to explore how cross-border frameworks, whether bilateral or multilateral, can support sustainable rural development, enhance agri-food value chains, and encourage innovation across agricultural systems.
Therefore, we invite contributions that examine policy mechanisms, institutional frameworks, and case studies where international collaboration has positively influenced agricultural productivity, land use planning, environmental management, or rural livelihoods.
So, studies that evaluate the role of EU territorial cooperation, trade integration, and joint innovation platforms in improving resilience and sustainability in borderland agriculture are of particular interest.
