Why a Regional Scale?
• Larger, global system more anonymous
• Promote maximum resilience Ruhf & Clancy, 2010
– Better balance of food demand & supply
– Appropriate for land use, energy, water, other resource management
– Diversity
• Federal interest in linking rural & urban areas
• Align with other regional planning efforts
