Abstract

Global climate change threatens various countries' food security and supply. The World Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) has identified 27 countries, including Indonesia, that are at risk of experiencing a food crisis. Several studies look at the potential of urban agriculture (UA) to overcome the food crisis and impact food security, family income, psychology, society, and the environment. Urban agriculture applied in developed and developing countries effectively increases commercial-scale food production on urban land by utilizing production technology. This research uses a mix of methods, namely quantitative and qualitative methods, where the results of the study found that people who practice Urban Farming are helped in terms of urban farming skills, food security, the creation of green open spaces, entrepreneurial opportunities, the fulfillment of nutritional needs, enjoying fresh crops, creating bonds among community members, educational benefits and awareness for mental health and the environment.
