Assessing the effects of commercial applications of urban agriculture practices in the Parisian cityscape through an analysis of two actual real-life cases

Résumé

Over the past few years, urban agriculture in cities has witnessed growing interest due to its potential benefits in terms of economic, socio-cultural, public health and environmental development (Santo et al., 2016). There is also an increasing interest in the significantcontribution that connecting with nature can make to our mental health and well-being,improving population health, lowering food costs and building sustainable cities, highlighting the need to recognize the multifaceted role of implementing urban agricultural practices in fostering a more sustainable lifestyle and reinforcing local communities and engagement (Boukharta et al., 2024). This article presents two case studies of the involvement of urban practices with an economic vocation in the French capital Paris, in order to evaluate, besides the social and environmental effects that these practices bring, their economic effects on the project owners and their effects on the government. This was achieved by carrying outinterviews with various stakeholders, including project managers, officials from city halls, municipalities etc., in order to gain a more in-depth analysis of their effect on the population and the city, as well as to assess their mode of governance. The results obtained show that these urban agriculture projects are becoming more widespread throughout the city, helping to securepurchasing economies and increase the number of people employed, and where the French government supports and encourages their development within the city, as the interviews also show that they have good relations with the local and national authorities, helping them to achieve their aims, through the provision of subsidies and other assistance.
