Examining the Business Case and Models for Sustainable Multifunctional Edible Landscaping Enterprises in the Phoenix Metro Area

“…There are also several urban sustainability issues that are frequently associated with the single purpose landscape approach in urban areas, such as food insecurity from lack of edible landscapes, urban flooding from poor storm water management functions, vacant or neglected landscapes that lack beneficial functions or support dysfunctions such as criminal activities, and so on. Because of these issues, certain urban landscapes would be better served with a different landscape approach, one that better recognizes functional interactions between and within landscapes, and enables multifunctional landscape design and use [1,[4][5][6].…”

“…that occurred during the 1970s; however, discussions during the early 2000s on sustainable landscape development resulted in multifunctional landscapes to begin coalescing as a transdisciplinary sub-field [3,5,[7][8][9][10][11]. The multifunctional landscape approach integrates cultural knowledge drawn from traditional pre-industrial landscapes designs, featuring close integration of multiple uses and functions, with modern transdisciplinary scientific methods and knowledge for landscape design and use.…”

Pimp Your Landscape - a Generic Approach for Integrating Regional Stakeholder Needs into Land Use Planning

“…Therefore, there is a demand for instruments that are able to deal with challenges such as the fragmentation of information and missing data communication standards, and that also allow for complex knowledge and experience management (Wiggering et al 2006, Mander et al 2007, Van Delden et al 2007. The concept of land use functions (LUFs) as developed in the EU funded Integrated Project SENSOR (Helming et al 2008) considers such complex demands.…”

Frames and dilemmas in multifunctional projects

“…Previous studies have extensively studied multifunctional projects with a focus on urban development (Vreeker et al, 2004;Hoppenbrouwer and Louw, 2005;Bruinsma, 2009;Van Leeuwen et al, 2010), governance (van Broekhoven et al, 2014), flood protection (Vis et al, 2003;Vellinga et al, 2009;Van Veelen et al, 2015), adaptation to climate change (Swart et al, 2014); agriculture (Vejre et al, 2007;Bjørkhaug and Richards, 2008), landscape management (Mander et al, 2007;Wiggering et al, 2006), or forest management (Wolf and Primmer,2006;Carvalho-Ribeiro et al, 2010). This literature points out that a main challenge in organizing multi-functionality originates from the complex organizational structure of these projects.…”

“…Multifunctional land use is a planning concept aimed at the 'sustainable use of land, focused on the creation of synergy between land use functions' (Vreeker et al, 2004, p. 292) that aims at mobilizing actors and resources to deliver innovative spatial projects that satisfy multiple societal demands (Lagendijk, 2003). Multi-functionality is the simultaneous and interrelated provision of various functions in the same area (Carvalho-Ribeiro et al, 2010;Mander et al, 2007).The concept of multifunctionality has attracted attention with a range of topics exploring the multi-functionality of landscapes (Dewi et al, 2013), multifunctional forest management (Carvalho-Ribeiro et al, 2010), multifunctional agriculture (Zasada, 2011), and multi-functionality in urban areas (Bomans et al, 2010;de Groot, 2006;Rodenburg, 2006).…”
