PROJETO DE APOIO AOS SISTEMAS AGROECOLÓGICOS: UNIDADES PRODUTIVAS DA AGRICULTURA URBANA COLETIVA/COMUNITÁRIA (U-AU-CL) DE BELO HORIZONTE

Urban Farm DB summary

This study provided academic and technical support for designing low-environmental-impact solutions to infrastructure deficiencies at the "Coqueiro Verde" Collective/Community Urban Agriculture Production Unit in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, to develop urban resilience strategies. A participatory diagnosis identified problems such as water scarcity and mismanagement, lack of sanitation, and the need for easy implementation and low cost. Primary solutions selected were the dimensioning of an Evapotranspiration Tank and the modular design of a support point based on soil-cement blocks.
