Suburban Agriculture Techniques
Suburban Agriculture Techniques
Suburban agriculture techniques focus on maximizing food production in residential or peri-urban areas. Practices like backyard gardening, community farming, and vertical gardening are popular in these regions. Using compost from household waste, crop diversification, and water-efficient irrigation methods enhances productivity sustainably. Suburban agriculture often integrates agroecological principles, such as pest control using natural predators. These techniques provide fresh produce, reduce dependence on commercial supply chains, and promote local food networks. They empower suburban communities to embrace self-sufficiency while contributing to environmental conservation and biodiversity.
