Abstract:

After 2000, the relationship between agriculture and city is gradually regarded as a new planning perspective and practical field. In the planning system of the United States, urban agriculture has gained legal status and became comprehensive public space policy to deal with problems of environmental health, community development, food safety, land management and other issues. Minneapolis’ urban agriculture planning strategies are relatively systematic, including: the zoning code was modified to recognize urban agriculture as a legitimate land use; various plans and regulations were made to achieve the development goals of urban agriculture; lands-intelligence and finance systems were established to guarantee the sustainable development of urban agriculture. It provides reference for the development of urban agriculture in China: the legal status of urban agriculture should be established in regulatory detailed planning; the supply of urban agriculture lands should be ensured by utilizing urban negative spaces; agricultural technology should be combined with urban ecological sanitation technology; the multi-participation should be established to realize the public policy function of urban agriculture.
