“…GI standards seem more pertinent for those aspects which have an immediate connection to the affected region, i.e., socio-economic criteria or ecological criteria related to the preservation of specific landscape or biodiversity features. This is consistent with the empirical literature that suggests that GIs favour specific sustainability dimensions more than others [24,45]. It is also consistent with the general finding that stakeholder selfregulation along Ostrom's design principles seems most effective for localised sustainability challenges [46].…”

Wine production faces numerous sustainability challenges. The backbone of European wine regulations is the framework for Geographical Indications (GIs), which is currently being reformed as part of the EU’s Farm-to-Fork Agenda. An important aspect of the reform is to strengthen the sustainability performance of GIs by allowing the integration of “sustainability undertakings” in GI product specifications. Our paper evaluates this policy approach based on the assessments of stakeholders from the German wine region Franconia and the Italian region of South Tyrol. We use a mixed-methods approach, combining semi-structured interviews and a quantitative survey among wine producers. We interpret our findings through the analytical lens of Elinor Ostrom’s Design Principles for the sustainable governance of common-pool resources. Our results show that localized “bottom—up” regulation in the framework of GIs corresponds to many practical and theoretical demands regarding sustainability governance. However, GIs seem to address certain sustainability aspects better than others. Sustainability undertakings in GIs should also avoid adding administrative burden to the already quite rigid GI regime and must be sufficiently inclusive and gradual. Overall, sustainability undertakings in GIs can only be considered as part of a broader policy mix.

“…The International Culinary Tourism Association expects this to increase significantly in several years. Many Indians, according to a recent poll published in India Today have included culinary activities in their vacation plans in the previous three years because of their great affinity for food and their desire to discover new flavours (Milano MZ et al, 2021). Food tourism in India is worth an estimated $2 billion each year.…”

In our nation, we have a rich history that is heavily affected by our geographical position, climate, and religious traditions. Traditions such as hospitality and humility are at the core of this ancient culture's foundation. The food provided is a major part of that. According to the widely held Indian belief system known as 'ATITHI DEVO BHAV,' the guest is revered as a deity in Indian culture, which is true across the nation. Many studies in gastronomy imply that food is at the heart of every culture. There is just 3.9 per cent of Indian foods that have a Geographical Indicator (GI) marking. There must be increased public awareness of the GI labelled foods since they represent national pride. One must also remember that the GI meals will boost culinary tourism in our nation. As a result, the country's cuisine culture is preserved via the employment of traditional cooking methods. This study aims to provide background information on GI foods, including how they are categorized and by whom. Foods in this category should be increased to honour our nation and preserve our country's historic traditional cuisine culture.

“…Furthermore, traditional culture will be passed on, local resources will be protected, and the conditions to ensure that farmers benefit will also be provided [4]. GIs certify that a product originates from a distinct geographical area and derives, from its geographical origin, a specific quality, which primarily reflects a long and unique journey of interaction and co-evolution between cultural practices, know-how, and the natural environment [5], thereby enticing consumers and producers with territorial distinctiveness.…”

Geographical indication (GI) offers a unique protection scheme to preserve high-quality agricultural products and support rural sustainability at the territorial level. However, not all the areas with traditional agricultural products are acknowledged with a GI. Quantifying the contribution of each factor to geographical indication agricultural products (GIAPs) can facilitate the formulation of effective policies to improve rural livelihoods. In this study, the random forest (RF) model was applied to investigate the contribution of multi-perspective factors, including nature, society, agriculture and market, on the distribution of GIAPs, and examined the driving causes using interpretable approaches. The empirical findings demonstrate that the RF model is able to accurately capture most of the important factors characterizing GIAPs and to make out-of-sample predictions of the study units which obtain GIs. This study revealed that natural conditions and market demand were contributing aspects to the disparity of GIAPs in Northeast China. The order of determinants was the category of online GIAPs (CatOn) > the number of online GIAPs (NumOn) > the area of black soil (BlaSoil) > the distance to offline stores selling GIAPs (DisOff). Of these, GIAPs was lower than ybase in parts of districts of Jilin and Heilongjiang Provinces when the area of black soil (BlaSoil) gradually increased. When the category and number of online GIAPs (CatOn and NumOn) were less than 20 and 5, respectively, GIAPs were enhanced, especially for 40% of the districts in Liaoning Province. Deepening understanding of GIAPs helps to better target and tailor sustainable development policies.
