Urban agroforestry on undeveloped land
Problems of urban agroforestry
Integrating agroforestry into urban planning and
policy
With the growth of towns and cities in the Pacific and the resultant
increasingly large and dense concentrations of people isolated to varying
degrees from rural production, urban agroforestry has taken on ever greater
significance, although until recently it has received little official
recognition or encouragement. Two main types of Pacific Island urban
agroforestry are categorized here as: home-garden agroforestry adjacent to
residences; and agroforestry on idle or undeveloped land within urban areas, but
usually at a distance from the
residence.
