Popis: Sustainable city region addresses the need for city regions to be self suf lyse the local food system as a strategy for planning the rural-urban fringe, a part of the city region where most of the resources to support the food production are prevalent. A lesson from the Jakarta Metropolitan Region (JMR), Indonesia shows that the failure in planning the rural-urban fringe undermines the ability of this city region to be self sufficient in relation to the provision of food. To this extent, the local food system serves as distinctive strategy to underpin the rural-urban fringe planning.
