Growing Urban Food – How to Grow Moringa in a Square Meter
Urbanization is changing human demands and straining natural resources. In order to support this lifestyle, the cities must adapt. The current trend of urbanization means that without making our cities more sustainable, there is little hope for a sustainable world.
Moringa leaves can be produced intensively in a family-sized small garden with seeds spaced as closely as 10 cm apart. When the plants reach a height of a meter. They can be cut down to a height of 30 cm. The moringa leaves can be stripped from the stems and used fresh or made into powder, while the stems can be fed to livestock. The stumps survive the harvest and will re-sprout, allowing another harvest in as little as 50 days. A moringa garden can thus continually produce moringa leaves for several years with little labor.
