All about urban farming

The new York Fund Design Trust for Public Space and Farming Concrete, the company announced the creation of the first public platform Farming Concrete Data Collection Toolkit, where will be collected and monitored information on production urban farms, and to reflect environmental and social benefits of urban agriculture.





"Urban agriculture is located at the intersection of political and environmental interests. So far in the country there was no framework that would facilitate a clear understanding of the values of urban farming. The work done by the Foundation, will help to understand how the government supports food system in General and, in particular, urban farming.





The Toolkit will help the enthusiasts of this industry to cope with the regulatory and financial difficulties — said the Director of the Design Trust Fund Suzanne Chin.





The result of 6 years hard work we become a portal for farmers and gardeners, where they can promote their products and open database, which includes research, practical reports and legislative regulations on this subject. The authors of the project believe that a single database can be a powerful impetus to the development of urban farming in the country.

The platform is designed for practicing farmers and scientists, sociologists and politicians interested in the subject of urban agriculture. published
