Research on Urban Productive Landscape Practices

Abstract:

China is undertaking an unprecedented development of rapid urbanization, and a large number of rural people are pouring into cities. It is estimated that the proportion of China's urban population will reach 60% in 2030. In fact, China's ecological environment has already been severely damaged. To be specific, large areas of river basin have been polluted, and a great deal of farmland has been replaced. However, current landscape planning and design are not trying to solve these urban issues, on the contrary, it costs huge in pursuit of one-sided visual effects. It merely accelerates the deterioration of our living environment. Thus, returning to the basic production of land, returning to the original landscape design as the art of survival, bringing food planting back to people's daily lives, and creating a productive landscape in the city are the strategies of survival for human being. The article focuses on urban productive landscape, which reflects several issues, such as agricultural production, current urban lifestyles, environmental quality, etc. It summarizes that the urban productive landscape plays a positive role and has a great potential in terms of enhancing the environmental, social, and economic status. Problems faced in the specific process of implementations and corresponding solutions are also given in the end.
