This report outlines a vision and roadmap for preserving Melbourne’s foodbowl for current and future generations as a fundamental building block in a healthy, resilient, sustainable and fair food system. This vision and ‘roadmap’ was developed through a collaborative process involving a wide range of stakeholders. It focuses particularly on five key recommendations: protecting farmland, strengthening farm viability, increasing water access and nutrient cycling, and promoting sustainable farming
