Grazing

  • Wilderness
  • Wildlife and livestock graze freely
  • Produces more natural, better-quality animal products for the general public
  • Slower growth rate and more expensive
  • Needs the most land
  • Chickens (free-range) and sheep are found in this area
  • Quickly going extinct due to urbanization
  • Less of them, less profit to the farmers

Forestry

  • Second ring
  • Products include timber and firewood
  • Heavy wood is hard to carry so the forestry is located closer to the CBD
  • Replenishment rate of trees is slow
  • Not eco-friendly
  • Commerce more focused on alternative fuels than forestry
  • Prices are lower than dairy and horticulture

Von Thunen's Model

Dairy & Horticulture

  • First ring outside of CBD
  • Fresh goods such as milk and cheese need to be transported quickly to avoid spoiling
  • Products include vegetables, fruit, milk, and other dairy products.
  • This is assuming the soil quality is good around the city.
  • More competition means relatively lower prices
  • Higher prices because it is closer to the CBD

CBD

  • City
  • All goods are transported into the CBD
  • Node/Epicenter
  • Based on an isolated state that is self-sufficient.

Pasture and Alternative Uses

  • Fourth ring
  • Animals are produced here for either butchering or to be sold
  • Animals can walk to the city so transportation is easy
  • Needs comparatively large amount of space
  • Cows, pigs, some chickens, etc. are found in this area
  • Lower prices than grain
  • More contained, so less organic, and more of them (more profit, less then previous rings)

Grain and Crop Rotation

  • Third ring
  • Products include grain, wheat and other seed products
  • These products are lighter and easier to transport so they are farther away from the CBD
  • Soil erosion and depletion
  • Heavily dependent on rainfall
  • Chemicals and runoff
  • Prices are lower still than forestry
  • More of this can be bought than the first two
  • Can be used as feed
