I´m my Thesis about knowlege. It´s very interesting then question. I consider the importance of accrediting these knowledge. Really a way that categories and markings can be avoided Popular knowledge is ancestral, but in discussions and the interactions with scientific knowledge, it is better to mediate. All knowledge is already previously evaluated by experience.
What are the objectives? If it's short-term maximisation of output it may be difficult to bridge the gap. Starting point should be the recognition, as Yeslando suggests, that knowledge of what works has been previously evaluated by experience and that more research is directed to better appreciation of such traditional forms - perma-culture concepts may help appreciate that sustainable production along the lines of circular consumption and production has an ecological, but also a social dimension.
