Citations in the corpus
- Urban agriculture: a global analysis of the space constraint to meet urban vegetable demand (2014, background): “…it has been proposed by many that by growing food in or near urban areas, one can more effectively deliver food to people and reduce the environmental costs of agriculture (Despommier 2011), especially the costs involved in transporting food (Deelstra and Girardet 2000, Perkins 1999, UNDP 1996).”
- Horticulture for poverty alleviation: the unfunded revolution (2005, background): “Urban and peri-urban areas are the origin of 24% of fruit type vegetables, 50% of crucifers, and up to 100% of leafy vegetables in Hanoi (An et al., 2003); and 60% in Shanghai (Cai and Zhangen, 2000) and Dakar, Senegal (Mbaye and Moustier, 2000).”
- Urban agriculture and poverty reduction: Evaluating how food production in cities contributes to food security, employment and income in Malawi (2011, unknown): “Against this backdrop, urban agriculture defined as ‘food production conducted in or around urban regions’ (Mougeot, 2001), seems to provide a realistic and pragmatic solution to urban poverty and food insecurity (Mougeot, 2005; Pothukuchi and Kaufman, 1999).”
- Enabling technologies and sustainable smart cities (2020, background): “…effects of environmental sustainability and human welfare include awareness of local influences with localized urban farming leading to enhanced climate and soil protection, minimization of urban waste, improved water management and maintenance of ecological balance (Deelstra & Girardet, 2000).”
