Our research focused on the spatial distribution of amenity and disamenity attributes affecting living and working conditions in a demographically and economically dynamic rural area with good ...transport connections. In this article, the concept of amenity is defined as the quality(-ies)/characteristics of a rural place that make it appealing for people to reside and work in, not only in terms of quantitative aspects but also dependent on individuals’ perceptions. We tested detecting such (dis)amenity attributes in Dežela (the north-western part of the Ljubljana Basin) with two target groups – geography students and local residents, while also comparing the results obtained via classical fieldwork and through collaborative mapping. We found that the responses of geography students and local residents in the study area were generally consistent both in terms of content and location. It would be sensible to take these results into consideration during the preparation of development documents (local development strategy, tourism development strategy). Use of collaborative mapping methods, along with diligent planning and clearly defined goals, enabled us to simplify the data collection process and involve younger portions of the population, who generally are not sufficiently engaged in planning processes.
V zadnjih dvajsetih letih je zeliščarstvo postalo večfunkcijska proizvodno-storitvena dejavnost, v kateri se prepletajo podjetništvo, tradicionalno znanje, kmetijstvo, varovanje naravnega okolja in ...sodoben način življenja. Ključni, relativno nov akter slovenskega zeliščarstva, so zeliščarji-podjetniki, ki na tržišče vstopajo z različnim znanjem in trženjskimi pristopi. S kvalitativno analizo polstrukturiranih intervjujev z zeliščarji-podjetniki smo za vsako podjetje izdelali kvalitativni profil in shematiziran prikaz podjetniških in trženjskih značilnosti (raznovrstnost ponudbe, prodajni kanali, možnost za širitev ponudbe, promocija, povezovanje in mreženje ter razpoložljivost delovne sile in vprašanje nasledstva). Le-te so močno odvisne od značilnosti nosilca dejavnosti, in sicer njegove starosti, zaključene formalne stopnje izobrazbe, starosti podjetja in podjetniških izkušenj ter razlogov za ustanovitev podjetja. Za uspešno delovanje zeliščarjev-podjetnikov so ključne njihove povezave z lokalnim in širšim (poslovnim) okoljem.

Based on evidence from nine countries (UK, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Croatia, Slovenia, and Ireland), this special issue analyses the fabrics of farm tourism in Europe. It identifies ...two main development trends: on one hand, a small scale and dispersed activities, at the other hand a product in response to tourist market demand. A brief overview of existing farm tourism practices in the European rural areas indicated an interesting interface between the forms and dimension of farm tourism embeddedness in local environment and at the same time, the ways and range of internationalization of farm tourism business
V znanstveni monografiji z naslovom Agri-Food and Rural Development. Sustainable Place-Making (Bloomsbury, Contemporary Food Studies, 2017) Marsden v šestih poglavjih temeljito predstavi preteklo in ...sedanje razumevanje ter prihodnji razvoj prehranskega sektorja in podeželja. Uvodno poglavje bralca zelo nazorno in temeljito vpelje v tematiko prehrane, prehranskih mrež in prehranske varnosti.
As the number of functions performed by rural areas increase, so too do the number of different users of rural areas. Where several functions overlap (such as agricultural, environmental protection, ...conservation, residential, recreational), we see the emergence of more or less attractive intersections (areas, points, lines). At the most attractive of these the interests of several actors and their activities overlap. However, due to different power relations between actors, such interactions are not equitable, which can lead to conflicts of interest. Conflicts are not necessarily negative; indeed, they can serve as catalysts for change. In the article we examine three conflicts in a rural area (Municipality of Izola, SW Slovenia). Through newspaper content analysis, we obtained data on conflicts in rural parts of the Municipality of Izola between 2008 and 2014. We supplemented the data with 13 in-depth interviews with relevant actors. The results showed that all three conflicts have positive characteristics; however, only one of them was a catalyst for change that accelerated the resolution of a long-standing problem in a new, more effective way.
•Rural is a social construct, so every user has their own idea of what is rural.•Numerous users of rural areas have often incompatible interests and ideas.•Conflicts can have many positive properties and can also function as catalysts.•Conflict as a catalyst occurs when it accelerates solving a problem in a new way.

Tudi v letošnjem letu smo na Oddelku za geografijo nadaljevali s tradicijo prirejanja strokovnih srečanj ob Mesecu prostora. Leto 2018 je na prostorskem področju zaznamovala nova prostorska in ...gradbena zakonodaja (Zakon o urejanju prostora, Gradbeni zakon, Zakon o arhitekturni in inženirski dejavnosti). Zato je Ministrstvo za okolje in prostor za letošnjo temo Meseca prostora predlagalo slogan »Prostor je zakon«. Na Oddelku za geografijo smo z letošnjim Mesecem prostora želeli prispevati k boljšemu poznavanju in razumevanju zelene infrastrukture v praksi. Slednja ima zaradi povezanosti fizične in družbene razsežnosti velik potencial za integracijo različnih raziskovalnih usmeritev znotraj geografije in tudi povezovanja z drugimi strokami.
The foodscape is the relational space of food provision. This paper examines key building blocks, actors as well as stakeholders of the local foodscape in the Škofja Loka Hills region. Therefore, we ...applied two research approaches: the food equation and the regional economic cycles. The foodscape in the Škofja Loka Hills region is very heterogeneous from the internal perspective, and homogeneous from the external perspective. It encompassess a range of actors (smaller and bigger farms, processing plants) and stakeholders (cooperative, supportive institutions), some of them are active outside of the functional area and already forming trans-local networks. Based on the analysis of accesible data, semi-structured interviews (N=14) and a focus group we estimate that in Škofja Loka Hills region there is more food produced than consumed.

EURAC Research iz Bolzana je v novembru 2018 privabil dvesto udeležencev iz 42 držav na 1. svetovni kongres o turizmu na kmetiji. Koncept in poimenovanje se med državami zelo razlikujeta: programski ...odbor se je zato praktično in pogumno odločil uporabiti izraz »agriturizem«, ki ga v slovenščini lahko nadomestimo s »turizmom na kmetiji«. V svetovnem smislu je turizem na kmetiji običajno prepoznan kot oblika nišnega turizma, ki pa ima pomembno vlogo v sodobnih turističnih razvojnih trendih. Ključna značilnost turizma na kmetiji je delujoča kmetija in z njo povezano kmečko gospodinjstvo (običajno večgeneracijsko), saj le-temu omogoča diverzifikacijo dejavnosti in dodaten dohodek na kmetiji. Z različnimi proizvodi in storitvami, ki dosegajo obiskovalce in turiste, lahko kmetija pomembno okrepi marsikdaj skromen dohodek iz osnovne kmetijske dejavnosti. Obenem je turizem na kmetiji širše prepoznan kot primer trajnostnega turizma, ki že leta pridobiva na pomenu.
Za ohranjanje vitalnosti, prožnosti in konkurenčnosti evropskega podeželja je izjemnega pomena delovanje kmetijskega sektorja: le-ta se sooča s premajhnim dotokom mladih in inovativnih kmetijskih ...praks. Oddelek za geografijo Filozofske fakultete Univerze v Ljubljani je kot partner v januarju 2018 pričel z izvajanjem štiriletnega projekta NEWBIE (New Entrant netWork: Business models for Innovation, entrepreneurship and resilience in European agriculture).
