Urban Community Farming Policy launched as guide for implementation of activities, says Zuraida
PUTRAJAYA (Aug 3): Housing and Local Government Minister Datuk Zuraida Kamaruddin today virtually launched the Urban Community Farming Policy (DKKB) to serve as a guide to regulate and propel urban farming in the country.
It outlines five thrusts and 17 strategies that are in line with regulations and procedures currently enforced by local government authorities.
According to Zuraida, DKKB would ensure effective urban landscape management, involving joint responsibilities between local authorities and the local community, with emphasis on the importance of optimising use of land in the neighbourhood or permitted open spaces.
