Abstract

Urbana poljoprivreda se može definirati kao poljoprivredna praksa koja se odvija u gradovima ili vrlo blizu njih, a zbog povećanja svjetske populacije raste i potreba za hranom. Sve više ljudi živi u gradovima, a kako bi se smanjila ovisnost o hrani koja prelazi stotine kilometara kako bi došla do potrošača, gradsko stanovništvo se okreće vlastitoj proizvodnji unutar gradova, odnosno urbanoj poljoprivredi. Njome se povećava sigurnost hrane, jer se ne ovisi o sirovinama koje stižu s polja. Cilj diplomskog rada je pobliže objasniti što je to urbana poljoprivreda, koja je njezina uloga i značaj, kako se urbana poljoprivreda razlikuje od ruralne poljoprivrede, te doprinos urbane poljoprivrede održivom razvoju. Daje se prikaz povijesnog razvoja urbane poljoprivrede, njezina p odjela, te neki od primjera urbane poljoprivrede kako u svijetu tako i u Hrvatskoj. Za provedbu istraživanja diplomskog rada korištena je domaća i strana literatura, koja se sastoji od knjiga, članaka, diplomskih radova, web stranica te istraživanja i mišljenja stručnjaka.

Abstract (english)

Urban agriculture can be defined as an agricultural practice that takes place in or very close to cities and the growth of the world population also increases the need for food. An increasing share of the world's population lives in cities and in order to reduce food dependence that would travel hundreds of kilometers to reach consumers, the urban population turns to its own production inside cities, i.e. urban agriculture. It increases food safety because it doesn't depend on raw materials coming from the field. The aim of the dissertation is to explain in more detail what urban agriculture is, what it's role and significance, how urban agriculture differs from rural agriculture, and the contribution of urban agricultural to sustainable development. The historical development of urban agriculture, its division and some examples of urban agriculture in both the world and Croatia are presented. Domestic and foreign literature, consisting of books, articles, graduate papers, web pages and research and opinions of experts, were used for conducting the survey of dissertation.
