Popis: This article aims to establish links between local (popular) agriculture knowledge and academic knowledge in order to codifying a local know how, in a territorial development process framework. A theoretical model, in which the mechanisms for certification of local knowledge systems was set, through the development of extension, research and teaching functions of a new university curriculum. It was based on competencies approach. The research project considered central rationalist guidelines of critical realistic approach, corresponding to a stage of the explanatory nature proposed in the so-called Variability of Scientific Research (VIC) model. Main findings show that factor’ systems in the model have high levels of consistency with certifying agricultural education systems along the undergraduate curriculum.
