  • Descrição: The production of natural resources (NRs) has been historically considered of low potential to trigger a virtuous path for growth and development. Nevertheless, recent studies challenge these ideas proposing instead that there are new opportunities for innovation and diversification in NR through production linkages. We study the innovation and diversification opportunities of NR industries in relation to the creation of knowledge networks. We conducted a case study based on 16 semi-structured interviews with actors involved in a knowledge network on cattle breeding. We ask about the cumulative capabilities that actors in the network have, about the types of knowledge flows, and about the potential for knowledge circulation beyond NR production. Our results show that there exists a network of diverse actors that is formed to satisfy the knowledge needs for innovation in cattle breeding. In terms of capabilities, the more capable actors are usually located in a central position in the network; they establish more ties with different partners and these links are generally of knowledge outflows. Finally, we found that the network opens-up to new partners that are not NR producers, expanding therefore the potential for knowledge circulation.
