I'm interested in research into the viability of sustainable urban farming (including animal husbandry and alternative proteins) to increase resilience and security of food supplies.

Post-Covid, working practices have changed with more people working from home, resulting in a lower demand for office space. There is also a move towards a four-day working week. These changes have implications for inner city property owners/managers, who may welcome a new client pool; like urban farmers/food producers.

• Is such a movement viable?
• Is it already happening
• Would the marketplace accept urban grown food
• What is needed to stimulate and grow the sector
• What are the advantages/disadvantages for:
• a. Consumers
• b. Property owners
• c. the environment
• d. Society
• e. The economy

Any pointers on any aspect of this would be most welcome.
