description Urban agriculture is a multifunctional activity that has proved a high capacity to provide alternatives to global crisis generating employment and incomes to who works the land, sustainable and healthy food to who eats its products, as well as social and environmental services to citizenship. In the Argentinean city of Rosario, in the province of Santa Fe, urban agriculture has moved from being an agronomic and socioeconomic alternative proposed by Agroecology to a massive activity in reaction to economic crisis in 2001 to become an institutionalized public local policy at present. In the process, actors involved, spaces and places, activities, organization and institutional links has gain in complexity, mainly in the last decade. At present, the Urban Agriculture Program in the city of Rosario is one of the few real cases of public management of urban agriculture multifuncionality. This article presents this experience and reflect on achievements, limits and challenges of public management of urban agriculture multifuncionality.
