Magical Foodscape

Under the COVID-19 epidemic, the common problem faced by different countries and regions — food shortage, stimulates us to reflect on the place of food in urban life. Through our investigation on Shanghai, Xi’an, Wuhan and Chengdu, four cities that featured by different and distinctive food culture, exploration of the distribution pattern and potential of grain origin, delivery chain, processing chain and retailors in these cities, we intend to take urban green space as carrier to improve efficiency of food production, absorption and processing, alleviate food problems under social crisis and improve the city’s ability to respond to social emergency.
