Description
Rita Biasi and co-authors write about farm diversity in city design in a 2023 paper. Agrobiodiversity means the range of plants and other living things that support food production. That range is shrinking worldwide, which puts food security and fairness at risk.
The authors trace how awareness of that loss has grown and how cities have responded. Many cities now plan growth around their farm land instead of treating it as empty space. Open areas are designed to host varied crops and local varieties, not just lawns and ornamentals. In the authors' account, such design can protect genetic resources while also serving food needs and well-being. The paper links global sustainability goals to concrete choices in urban planning.
