Abstract
Population growth in the world has increased the pressure of urbanization and led to the growth and expansion of urban areas. In addition, this situation has caused some problems in the production of food in cities. These problems can be solved by applying peri-urban agriculture, which is an alternative land use model where interfaces in the urban-rural context can be best evaluated. In addition to being a sustainable land use, urban agriculture also contributes to environmental, social, health, and economic areas. In this study, the definitions, contributions and benefits of urban agriculture and peri-urban agriculture are explained. There is no clear policy framework for urban and peri-urban agriculture in Turkey. But in fact, urban interfaces are and will remain subject to the work of planners and policymakers. The process of transforming villages in big cities into communities has been presented from a utilitarian perspective in light of Law No. 6360. In the urban and peri-urban areas, urban agriculture has been adopted as a profitable way out in terms of production, and suggestions for the development of urban agriculture practices in Turkey are presented.
