| description | The city of Oran is facing its spatial extension as well as the development of its economic activities within its rural periurban hinterland. This extension has become the number one problem of this landscape. And periurban agriculture in Oran is changing in terms of land ownership and economy, with pressure on its space and activities. Most of its agricultural land is wedged between the city centre and the ring of settlements around its periphery, therefore threatened on all sides by urban growth. It has supported the spread of the city and led to the broadening of the base reserved for the buildings at the expense of landscape quality and agricultural production. Today the rural area of Oran is affected by the reduction of the number of farmers and cultivated land because of productivity loss in a production system that has changed slowly towards gardening rather than intensive modernized market garden crops. One has to imagine through time the disappearance of the actors involved as well as the scenery of the countryside and their replacement by urbanized areas with different uses …under the impacts of periphery urbanization of a growing agglomeration of about one million inhabitants. Periurban agriculture has suffered a real trauma with regards to land patterns and ownership without totally disappearing. It is perhaps not too late to protect its space and revitalize its activities. Oran which is the subject of our research , has been like many other cities of the country the victim of a long process of uncontrolled urbanization and the consumption of agricultural land as well as environmental degradation and landscape change . This article is a contribution to the debate on the issue in Algeria. |
