What is Urban Geography?
It can be considered a sub-discipline of the larger field of human geography with overlaps of content with that of Cultural Geography
Definition of Urban Geography.
Urban geography is the study of urban places with reference to their geographical environment.
Urban geography is the sub discipline of geography which concentrates on those parts of the Earth's surface that have a high concentration of buildings and infrastructure
.
It is that branch of science, which deals with the study of urban areas, in terms of concentration, infrastructure, economy, and environmental impacts.
Griffith Taylor- Urban Geography includes the site revolution pattern and classification of towns.
Dudley Stamp- Urban Geography is infecting the intensive study of town and their development in all their geographical aspects.
Meaning of an Urban Place
UN Demographic Year Book concludes: “There is no point in the continuum from large agglomerations to small clusters or scattered dwellings where urbanity disappears and rurality begins the division between urban and rural populations is necessarily arbitrary.”
A review of the problems of rural and urban centres as revealed by the Census Reports of various countries identifies a few bases for reckoning a place as urban.
Difference between rural and urban depends upon their nature of work – the former being engaged in agricultural operations and the latter in non-agricultural activities.
Criteria of an Urban Place
(1) A place designated by administrative status;
(2) A minimum population;
(3) A minimum population density;
(4) A concept of contiguity to include or exclude under suburban area or loosely scattered settlement;
(5) A proportion engaged in non-agricultural occupations; and
(6) A functional character.

Paradigm is just a way of your interpretation that how you interpret something. And geographic paradigms have changed time by time. In previous time we think of a one continent Pangea but now we are familiar with several. It is a long debate to discuss it in a detail. There is only one thing to learn from this slide is the development of knowledge and advancement in technology have changed our perspectives and assumption about the geographical land on which we are living. Change is absolute which take you on ride from one side of picture to other side. Then you have many paradigms of one picture.
City region is a term in use since about 1950 by urbanists, economists and urban planners to mean a metropolitan area and hinterland, often having a shared administration. Typically, it denotes a city, conurbation or urban zone with multiple administrative districts, but sharing resources like a central business district , labour market and transport network such that it functions as a single unit.

let's learn about dichotomy and dualism. Dichotomy is a division or contrast between two things that are or are represented as being opposed or entirely different. It can also mean repeated branching into two equal parts1. For example, there is often a dichotomy between what politicians say and what they do. Hello, this is Bing. Dualism has different meanings depending on the context. In general, it is the division of something conceptually into two opposed or contrasted aspects, or the state of being so divided1. For example, in philosophy, dualism is a theory that considers reality to consist of two irreducible elements or modes, such as mind and matter2. In religion, dualism is the belief in two supreme opposed powers or gods, or sets of divine or demonic beings, that caused the world to exist3.

5. What is Agriculture
The word “agriculture” comes from the Latin agri ‘field’
and cultura ‘till, care for
• The expanded definition of Agriculture includes the
cultivation of plants and animals.
• Agriculture is defined as the science, art, and business
of cultivating the soil, producing crops and raising
livestock.
• The goal of agriculture is produce sufficient food
supplies.
• In the broadest sense, agriculture comprises the entire
range of technologies associated with the production
of useful products from plants, and animals through
soil cultivation, and crop and livestock management.
6. What is Agriculture
• Agriculture as a "branch of economic geography has
its emphasis on the spatial pattern
of agricultural activities as well as on the nature of
relationships between agricultural activities and
biological, economic and cultural elements that
influence those activities.
7. What is Agricultural Geography
• Etymologically Agricultural Geography means the art of
cultivation of soil with reference to natural environment
and human circumstances in a particular region.
• Thus Agricultural Geography is concerned with the spatial
variations, distribution and location of agricultural
activities on the earth’s surface and the factors
responsible for them.
• It is dominated by the interrelationship and effects of both
physical and socio-economic factors on spatial farm
enterprises and farm operations.
8. Agricultural Geography: Concepts
• As a sciences of agricultural geography is concerned with
– the formulation and testing of hypothesis
– interpretation of spatial distribution and location of
various characteristics of agricultural activities and
– measurement of geographic relationships
• Further as a science it seeks to identify, describe and
clarify the problems of agriculture against the geographic
background
9. Agricultural Geography: Nature
• Agricultural potentialities of a region determines the
human societal condition.
• The growth of the agricultural production brings economic
prosperity through better planned industrial location and
developed communication.
• Without improving the conditions of the people,
agricultural land use and industries no progress will occur
in regional development and planning.
• So the subject matter interlinked with the all kind of spatial
and economic aspects of agricultural activities.
10. Agricultural Geography: Scope of the subject
• Regional agricultural analysis
• Food and commercial crops
• Agricultural problems and planning
• The ownership of agricultural land
• Agroclimatology
• Classification of agricultural region
• Land conservation
• Crop combination
• Crop diversification
• Crop concentration
• Agricultural productivity and efficiency
• Levels of agricultural development
• Supply of food in relation to population
11. Agricultural Geography: Aims and objectives
• To know the different kinds of agricultural systems are
distributed over a region and how they function with
spatial arrangement
• To understand how particular types of agriculture have
developed in a particular area and how they are similar or
dissimilar to farming in other areas
• To analyze different systems of farming and their
operations and also to know the changes that they undergo
• To highlight the volume and direction of the changes in
agriculture of region
• To define the crop regions with reference to crop
production and combination or the system of agricultural
enterprise
12. Agricultural Geography: Aims and objectives (Cont’d)
• To measure and examine the causes for the levels or
agricultural development and disparities
• To identify weaker areas of agricultural productivity and
efficiency
• To delimit the areas of agricultural stagnation, transition
and dynamisms
13. Agricultural Geography: Theme
• One of the biggest established themes in agricultural
geography is the study and analysis of agricultural region
14. Geographer’s Perspective of World Agriculture
• Geographers are interested in the patterns and
distribution of agriculture in the world today.
– What are the patterns of agriculture worldwide?
– Why are agricultural areas distributed in the manner
that they are?

• Can soil types predict where civilizations thrive?
• Do you know about the soils in the various colors?
18. Geography: Food, Land & People
• Different culture,
religions, traditions
based on food and land.
19. • What does the average family

24. Focused area of Agricultural Geography
• Agricultural Geography addresses
- bio-physical determinants of agricultural patterns
and productivity;
- socio- cultural and economic determinants of
agricultural patterns and productivity;
- agricultural activities and spatial organization;
- agricultural decision making analysis;
- agricultural technological changes;
- agriculture and economic development;
- global emerging issues in agriculture from spatial
and temporal perspectives.
25. Factors of Influencing Agricultural Production
Physical Factors
– Location (latitude and altitude)
– Sun ( temperature, evaporation rates)
– Land/Soil (fertility)
– Water (precipitation & rivers)
– Climate/season
Cultural Factors
– Population Distribution
– Diet of population-calorie supply, protein, health
– Living Material-clothes, houses
– Cultural Tradition-nomadic, sedentary/rain dances
– Economics-cash crops with greatest profit ie. viticulture
– Government/Political Policies-Argentina wheat, Japan rice
26. Agricultural Trends
Over years, cultivation methods have changed significantly
depending upon the characteristics of physical environment,
technological know-how and socio- cultural practises.
• Hand Labor - Mechanization
• Small Plots - Large corporately - owned holdings
• No fertilizers - natural fertilizers - chemical fertilizers
• Natural Seed Production - Hybrid Seeds
• Farm to family - Farm to processing to supermarkets
• Nature controlled water - man controlled water
