Insights from Pasture-Based Animal Husbandry in Five EU Countries». Journal of Land Use Science, vol. 19, n.o 1, janeiro de 2024, pp. 59–77. https://doi.org/10.1080/1747423X.2024.2326321.http://hdl.handle.net/10400.5/102639Previous research has shown that products labeled as ‘Protected Designation of Origin’ (PDO) correlate positively with indicators for land- scape sustainability. However, specific factors that turn PDO products into sustainable landscape management tools remain vague. We analyze inter- views from six European production systems to explore the links between PDO-labeled products and sustainable landscape management. All case studies were linked to extensive animal husbandry. We found that PDO products can contribute to sustainable landscape management if well- adapted incentives for agri-environmental measures supplement income. Successful products are further associated with local networks that use synergies between different stakeholder interests. Due to their promotion of social-ecological goals at the landscape level, PDO products can be a powerful addition to the EU’s Green Deal and rural development strat- egy, and by introducing eligibility criteria that focus on social-ecological goals, PDO labeling could be classified as a sustainability standard.engfood labelinghigh naturevalue farmlandphenomenon-centered text analysisagricultural policyfarm to fork strategyIs the ‘Protected Designation of Origin’ an indicator for sustainable landscape management?
