Answer:

Johann Heinrich von Thunen was an economist who developed a model of land use in early nineteenth century. The model showed that how various market process can determine the land use pattern in different location. He was a skilled farmer who had knowledge in economics. According to the four rings for land use, dairying and intensive farming must be done in the ring central to the city so that the products can reach the city easily. Timber and firewood should be produced in the second ring because wood is heavy and difficult to transport. The field crops must be located in the third ring and ranching should be done in the outer ring.
