Metropolitan Agriculture
IABR–2014–Project #49: Metropolitan Agriculture (Foundation Metropolitan Agriculture)
We need to rethink the way in which we organize the spatial division between urban living environments and rural production environments. The current development will push agriculture away from our cities, eventually destroying nature.
But there is an alternative: Metropolitan Agriculture. Combining urban development with agricultural production enables a mix of functions to co-exist next to each other. And by doing that, we prevent the rest of the face of the earth to be sacrificed for food production. Feeding our metropoles without destroying nature!
