  15. Just returned from the Oxford-Berkeley Summer Doctoral Programme at UC Berkeley — two intellectually intense and energising weeks with PhD researchers and leading scholars from around the world.
    Thanks to @oiioxford & @ucberkeley for creating such a generous environment. It’s rare to leave an academic setting feeling both exhausted and recharged.

  17. My commentary on the paper 'The loss of peri-urban agricultural land and the state-local tensions in managing its demise: The case of Greater Western Sydney, Australia' (Amy Lawton, Nicky Morrison. 2022)
    ---
    Peri-urban agricultural land is rapidly disappearing. Between 2011 and 2016, 66 per cent of primary production land in Greater Western Sydney was lost to urban development.

    Historically, these areas have played a crucial role in food security and resilience, providing not only food and fibre but also ecosystem services, flood and urban heat mitigation, recreation, and liveability benefits.

    In this paper, Lawton and Morris argue that farming’s limited profitability incentivises an ageing generation of farmers to re-zone and subdivide their land as a retirement strategy. At the same time, conflicting state and local planning policies fail to safeguard peri-urban farmland from development.

    As more peri-urban agricultural land is lost, young farmers struggle to access affordable land, and cities become increasingly dependent on lengthy, energy-intensive supply chains.

    Meanwhile, ecosystems surrounding our most populated areas continue to be degraded.
    ---
    The conclusions in this paper are corroborated by real world experiences of young farmers in Western Sydney and through to the west of the Blue Mountains.

    In these areas, personal contacts of mine have not been able to buy or even lease suitable land to grow food because land is typically valued for residential purposes, which far exceeds what is accessible for young farmers with no access to capital.

    Even where land is zoned exclusively for agricultural purposes, developers and speculators are land banking which prevents farmers from utilising land.

    In some cases young farmers have been exploited by developers in a scam to gain development approval. The farmers are 'employed' by land owners to develop agricultural activities on the land in order to gain development approval to build homes. However, once the homes are complete the owners cease farming activities and kick the farmers off the land.

    In another case, a young farming couple were effectively locked out of their property by a non-farming neighbour, who bullied them via the courts until they sold him their land.
