Urban Agriculture

Urban agriculture is the practice of cultivating, processing, and disbursing food in or perhaps around a town, town, or city. [1] Urban agriculture can also involve animal husbandry, aquaculture, agroforestry, Downtown beekeeping, and horticulture. These activities occur in peri-urban areas at the same time. [2]

Urban agriculture may reflect varying degrees of economic and sociable development. In the global north it often takes the shape of a sociable movement for eco friendly communities, where natural growers, ‘foodies, ’ and ‘locavores’ form social support systems founded on a new shared ethos associated with nature and neighborhood holism. These cpa networks can evolve whenever receiving formal institutional assist, becoming integrated directly into local town planning as being a ‘transition town’ movements for sustainable city development. In the developing south, foods security, nutrition, and income era are key motivations for that practice. In either case, more immediate access to fresh greens, fruits, and beef products through city agriculture can boost food security as well as food safety.
