Abstract

The rapid growth of urban populations in developing countries makes it imperative to incorporate urban and peri-urban agriculture into urban planning, based on agricultural and urban development policies. The study aimed to point out how policies that hinder and favor the development of urban and peri-urban agriculture. For this, a bibliometric analysis was performed and then the PRISMA method was applied for systematic analysis. The results showed that cities have land use policies, protection zoning, financing, land allocation or donations, environmental preservation method and a means of promoting public health. However, there are cities with restrictive zoning, prohibitive policies, ill-defined regulations, resource restrictions, high-priced land and informal activity. It is concluded that urban and peri-urban agriculture depends on public policies for urban planning on the use of agricultural land, policies to encourage production and consumption.
