Abstract

The purpose of this article is, after presenting the specifics of AKIS as an approach to promoting innovation applied within the Common Agricultural Policy of the European Union, to carry out a comparative assessment of the innovation systems in agriculture in the countries of Western and Central and Eastern Europe. The assessment is based on three criteria - diversity of groups in the system, frequency of interactions of these entities in AKIS and main actors who interact directly with farmers. The synthesized data show that, in general, in the agriculture of the countries of Central and Eastern Europe, the variety of partners in their innovation systems is relatively small, the intensity of interactions between them is relatively weak, and the transfer of knowledge to farmers takes place to a greater extent by public organizations than by private sector representatives and farmer-based organizations.
