Marginalization Of Agriculture Vis A Vis Urbanization And Its Implications On Food Security
Main Article Content
Abstract
Public agencies, civic society, and scholars are all showing a growing interest in urban agriculture, despite its long history of being neglected or disregarded on the notion that it is not a suitable urban activity. This study presents findings from research and municipal discussions conducted in seven West Indian towns that analyzed the institutional features of urban agriculture, such as the limitations that it encounters. And despite regional decentralization efforts, local governments have not committed to bolstering urban farming. Despite the many people involved in urban agriculture's promotion and growth, its legal standing is unclear. They also make people more vulnerable to the effects of climate change and hinder efforts to fortify communities against these hazards. Gender inequality is exacerbated by urban food insecurity, which has both economic and non-economic causes.
