              <text>This study is an investigation on how urban agriculture enhances food security in Old Pumula suburb of Bulawayo. The study sought&#13;
to establish the nature and extent of urban agriculture in Old Pumula identify challenges faced by urban farmers and suggest&#13;
recommendations for improved urban agriculture. A descriptive survey research design was used and the mixed method used for data&#13;
collection and analysis. Data were collected through the questionnaire for Old Pumula residents (respondents) and through an&#13;
interview with the Agricultural Research and Extension (AREX) officer. The results of the study confirm that urban agriculture&#13;
contributes significantly to food security in Old Pumula. The research also revealed that urban farmers are faced with severe land&#13;
shortage and are restricted by by-laws from free practise of urban agriculture. The study recommended that government could amend&#13;
its by-laws and include urban agriculture in urban land use zones. It also recommended that government should avail more land for&#13;
urban agriculture.</text>
