Description
Agricultural production systems in transition between rural and urban areas, 'peri-urban agriculture', represent a unique and dynamic mix of agricultural practices. This transitional area is characterized by proximity to urban markets, diverse land use, and a mix of traditional and modern farming practices, opening up opportunities for innovative resource (re)use and economic synergies as well as adapted land use planning related to water resources and urban climate. A first step is to describe, analyze and explain the changing resources along the urban-rural continuum. Gradients such as population density, infrastructure, land value and natural resource availability, with their complexity and interdependencies, pose a challenge to realizing a sustainable transition of peri-urban agri-food systems.
