Résumé : | According to the latest estimate of the Unites Nations, the World's urban population is expected to increase from 2.76 billion in 1995 to 5.34 billion in the year 2025 at which time more then half (2.72 billion) will reside in Asian cities. Many cities are expected to boom in the near future or are already booming besetting them with nearly insurmountable problems such as employment for often fairly uneducated migrants from house-holds, commerce and industry by safe means and sufficient supply of cheap but nutritious food rich in vitamins and minerals to feed the population of these expanding urban centers. Through analysis of the economic, sociological, and anthropological situation of urban and periurban communities and small and medium-sized farm enterprises (SMEs) in these cities the different factors and constraints affecting and limiting the potential for vegetable production by SMEs should be evaluated and prioritized. Production technologies that fit the socio-economic and anthropological situation in the urban communities need to be developed |
