Abstract: This paper analyses the role of Argentinian interprofessional organizations (OIP) in the innovation systems of grain value chains. Three organizations are studied: ACSOJA, for the soybean chain, ASAGIR, for the sunflower chain and PROARROZ, for the rice chain. These OIP are interpreted as potential innovation networks and are part of the institutional structure of chains. They combine the logic of capital with territorial logic and initiate between these two logics a structural coherence that determines their specific role in the innovation process. The comparative analysis shows that the territorial and sectorial characteristics of each chain as well as the coordination mode chosen are significant to explain innovation results.
