Main objectives :
The Institute for Rural Economy of the Swiss Federal Institute
of Technology Zurich is the largest research station for rural economy,
agricultural policy and farming management in Switzerland. Researchers
participing to this project are supervised by Prof Bernard Lehmann,
who leads the Chair of economics of farming, agri-business and rural
areas.
The IER team has both a deep knowledge of the economic literature
concerning markets and institutions and an operational approach
dedicated to the elaboration of tools of practical use for markets'
operators and policy makers. It has carried out research regarding
PDO and PGI products.
The institute, actually is directed to promote sustainable agriculture,
in particular in the Alpine regions and assuring food supply. The
Chair has developped competence in the following fields :
- socio-ecological economic approach to sustainable development
with applications to rural area,
- marketing and trade of quality products : actors' co-ordination
to commit with collective goals and consequent organisation of
the food supply chain system.

Main objectives :
The Association suisse pour la promotion des AOC et des IGP was
set up in Bern in 1999 to associate all the supply chains willing
to protect their product with a PDO or a PGI. The aim of the Association
is to promote the AOC (PDO) and the IGP (PGI) label in Switzerland
to make it well known for the consumers and the retailers. The activities
of the Association are promotional and informational activities
about the AOC and the IGP labels (leaflets, web-site, public relations,
exhibitions, conferences,
). The members of the Association
can use the AOC or the IGP logo of the Association. The Association
encourages the use of these logos so that all the Swiss registered
products have the same visual identity to inform the consumers they
are AOC or IGP products.
