Urban Farming success indicators
Many consider our Urban Farming a success. A few had doubts. The success indicators of Urban Farming are: Urban Farming must establish Urban Green Plans; must reduce the poverty line; must create community participation and social life; must have government connections and support. Our city was a far cry but the team was determined to pass the indicators. We agreed to make Urban Farming work for us.
Meeting of local engineers, herbalists, farmers and city planners were conducted to established for help and support in our programs. Treatments of waste water for irrigation to reduce the spread of disease started. Restoring barren areas contaminated by harmful chemical not conducive for Urban Farming started. With initial experimental research done, we met city officials to make sure we were not going against any local laws or regulation. To our surprise, we got help in terms of added financial support. With materials gathered from many websites advocating Urban Farming we are on the road to success.
