Preparation and implementation of a pilot action for the conservation, improvement and economic promotion of Barcelona suburban agricultural area

Objective



The purpose of the project is to determine the characteristics of a future 3000 hectare Agricultural Park in the delta and lower valley of the Llobregat River, for the conservation, improvement and development of the outer-suburban agricultural and natural areas of the Barcelona Metropolitan Region. This will be a sustainable model for the zone which will guarantee the conservation of its natural values and its development.

The central sector of the Barcelona metropolitan region is environmentally complex. It has several protected natural areas, alluvial farmland and a seafront that is subject to a heavy social usage. These more or less natural environments must coexist alongside a large, diffuse built-up area. The ensuing human pressure can be seen in the deterioration of its environmental resources and values.

The proposed Llobregat Agricultural Park may resolve this problem. Territorial planning (town planning measures) must be combined with a policy aimed at the economic promotion of the area's agriculture (including infrastructure improvements, application of singular structural measures). The inclusion of different sectorial measures in a single project is a methodological novelty for a periurban area in the throes of an agricultural and environmental crisis.
