dc.description.abstract | The “Urban Agriculture Europe” EU COST-Action (2012–2016) has shown that the complexity of urban
agriculture (UA) is hardly compressible into classic business management models and has proposed new
management models, such as the Business Model Canvas (BMC). Business models of UA have to be different
from rural ones. In particular, factors such as differentiation and diversification, but also low cost-oriented
specialisation, are characteristic and necessary business models for UA to stay profitable in the long term
under challenging city conditions. This paper aims to highlight how farm enterprises have to adjust to
urban conditions by stepping into appropriate business models aiming to stay competitive and profitable,
and how the BMC is useful to analyse their organisation and performance, both economically and socially.
The paper offers an inter-regional analysis of UA enterprises located in Spain, Italy, and Germany, which
are further subdivided into: local food, leisure, educational, social, therapeutic, agri-environmental,
cultural heritage and experimental farms. The analysis demonstrates that UA is differentially adjusted
to specific urban conditions and that the BMC is useful for analysing urban farming. Heterogeneous local
food farms and the integration of local and organic food production in social farming business models are
most frequent in our case studies. | es |
