Today, the scale of urban agriculture (UA) in Botswana's urban settlements is very limited comparing to the intensive agricultural practices found in other Southern African cities. In the capital of Gaborone, one of the fastest growing cities in Africa, a few agricultural projects have been started and integrated into its urban development. The aim of this article is to give more details on these improvements using a case study of Glen Valley that is a typical example of urban agriculture integration into urban planning.
