This captivating book delves into the realm of urban planning, shedding light on how insights from past experiences can shape the ongoing discussions surrounding urban agriculture. It presents productive landscapes as powerful tools for fostering positive change in areas characterized by territorial fragility and abandonment, ultimately promoting social cohesion, food security, and broader environmental and economic advantages. By re-mapping the way we perceive and approach landscape limitations and challenges, the book aims to unlock new possibilities for innovation and revitalization in urban-rural interactions.
Drawing upon significant past urban agricultural experiences, the book offers critical reflections that are instrumental in rekindling ideas for envisioning future urban scenarios where productive landscapes assume fundamental transformative roles. The focus lies in exploring planning ideas and the roles of key individual planners who have played a pivotal role in designing agricultural strategies for cities throughout their careers.
The book's objective is to empower us to reimagine urban-rural relationships and the transformative potential of under or misused urban open spaces, peri-urban areas, fringe conditions, and in-between spaces. It serves as a valuable resource for policymakers, urban designers, community leaders, and anyone interested in exploring innovative approaches to urban development that prioritize sustainability, resilience, and the harmonious integration of agriculture and urban environments.
