Abstract

In recent years, the rapid growth of cities is placing enormous demands on urban food supply systems. An emphasis on urban sustainability has encouraged the diffusion of the formula Urban and Peri-urban Farming (UPF) or precision agriculture (PA), in order to summarise a number of sociospatial trends that also affect the regional planning perspective. This paper traces a methodological reflection between the advantages of direct and indirect analysis approaches, in order to support the consequent design decisions and to rethink the productive landscapes as an integrative element of the resilient city model.
