One of the advantages of the Kansai region is that its urban and rural areas are in close proximity. In consideration of that, this project aims to propose strategies to increase the profitability of agriculture in Kansai based on the integration of urban and rural areas into a community of “local production for local consumption.”
The project involved conducting fieldwork and interview surveys, evaluating case studies, and summarizing issues for the implementation of a community model based on food and agriculture.
