Summary:碩士 === 國立臺北大學 === 不動產與城鄉環境學系 === 102 === Quality of life has been the domain of development discourse for the past decade around the world. The research for a quality of life promotion has always been an important issue among the urban planning and development field. Urban agriculture, an implication has multiple functions in urban environment, might be an efficient approach to promote urban quality of life. The role which urban agriculture will play depends on careful social cost/effectiveness studies of the alternative uses of land. It will be necessary to forecast urban agriculture requirements for the consideration of urban development. This study highlights the benefits of adopting this practice with the aim to help decision makers to include scenario thinking in the process of determining land allocation for urban agriculture application. This study tries to introduce urban agriculture to promote quality of life and utilize objective scientific method to the empirical study. This study will include the following sections. First, we try to study and classify the characteristics of urban agriculture considerations based on literature review. Followed by applying fuzzy Delphi technique (FDT) to obtain individual expert’s opinions and to screen the most important criteria of proposed urban agriculture considerations in our research. And then the empirical study of Taipei areas will be demonstrated to show the application of our proposed methodology. Finally, the utilization of data envelopment analysis (DEA) model combined with assurance region analysis will be applied to select the most suitable urban agriculture locations as the suggested development strategies for urban quality of life.
