Urban expansion has typically taken precedence over claims for land as advances in technologies
has made it easier for people to get their food goods from farther, faster. Globalization and industrial
food production has ensured that most of us are able to be fed. However, growing health and

conscious choices about what they eat and from where it derives. as a result, the practices of the rural
are now, more than ever, invading into the urban.
