WATER: drainage channels
(element cross-cutting the actions of various actors of the agri-urban system).
FOOD: diversification
(e.g., with herbals that could valorize the prized local olive oil)
& shortening of supply chains
to improve coordination between agriculture and urban actors and
expectations
Each game session dealt with 1
of two main territorial issues:
- water management
- local food production
For each we counted the
landscape elements mentioned
by actors
LAND SYSTEM COMPONENTS mentioned by players
AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTION mentioned by players
