Urban Farm DB summary

A study in Seoul examined farmers' views on the Green Belt policy. Leaseholders did not want changes, while landowning farmers desired revision or dissolution, with both groups citing development delays and difficulty changing land use. The Green Belt policy was found to cause development delays and land use change difficulties, indicating negative impacts on farmers.
