Leveraging and combining resources for sustainable urban agriculture development in major Vietnamese cities

<p align="justify">Cities serve as principal economic hubs within the nation, characterized by unique socio-economic conditions and potential that present advantages as well as challenges for future economic advancement. The swift urbanization process is associated with the increasing demand for safety and sustainable development, especially in major cities like Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam. Notably, sustainable urban agriculture, which is an integral component of the increasing movements towards locally sourced food, is a significant concern and is prioritized in the city’s comprehensive planning. This review paper presents models of agricultural development, emphasizing the synthesis, analysis, and evaluation of diverse resources—both their individual effects and their collaborative interactions with urban development—alongside the principal benefits and challenges in optimizing and utilizing these resources for optimal effectiveness. Additionally, this paper also suggests strategies to optimize resource utilization and foster the establishment of a sustainable, adaptable, and efficient urban agricultural system.</p>
