Urban and peri-urban agriculture currently attracts considerable attention from citizens, policymakers and researchers. Perceived positively for its contributions to urban sustainability and food systems, it nonetheless faces significant challenges, including urban pressure on agricultural land, the economic viability of farms, and environmental pollution, among other concerns. Cities and Agriculture examines intra- and peri-urban agricultural spaces and the stakeholders driving them, analyzing the socio-spatial dynamics currently at play. Drawing on a variety of case studies from contrasting geographic contexts, it demonstrates how issues manifest locally yet recur globally, transcending the North-South divide. This book thus offers insights into the making of urban regions through the lens of their agricultural spaces.
