The AgriSpin Project aims at creating space for agricultural innovations, “through amplifying good examples of innovation support systems and through multi-actor learning about ways to stimulate innovation and remove obstacles” (AGRISPIN Grand Agreement). The research approach for achieving such an aim is based on the in-depth exploration of a number of selected innovation cases during 13 cross visits (CV) in the project partners’ countries. Participants/ project partners in each CV endeavour to gain a deeper understanding of innovation processes and inspiration for improvements of the services being offered, finding a method for exploring innovation practices and the role of support service providers and contributing to the creation of a professional network of innovation support agents(Grand Agreement). During the Romanian Cross Visit four innovative cases were studied: Case 1: Innovative markets: Community enterprise Case 2: Innovative markets: private Case 3: Viscri Farmers Association Case 4: Model Sheepfold
