Participatory Technology Development for Sustainable Intensification of Urban Agriculture 1
Gordon Prain, R. van Veenhuizen
Urban Farm DB summary
The production of food, feed, fuel, and construction material in and around cities is almost as old as human settlement itself: the earliest cities of the Fertile Crescent, China, and South and Central America show evidence of local food production that served as an essential component of urban food security in times of conflict. The available abstract text ends at this historical framing and does not describe the specific participatory technology development methods or results referenced in the title.
