Question

In the von Thunen model of agricultural Land use, what is produced closest to the city epicenter

Answer 1

Answer:

In the Von Thunen Model of agricultural land use, dairy, vegetables and fruits are produced closest to the city epicenter.

Explanation:

The Von Thunen Model describe the agricultural land use of an ideal typical region. In this ideal-typical model, transport costs are the influencing factor that essentially justifies the land use of a certain region.  

Von Thunen assumes that the agricultural products are not consumed or processed at the place of their production, but that they are transported to a customer. This incurs transport costs, which grow with increasing distance and are also dependent on the volume and weight of the goods.  

In the Von Thunen Model, the farmers maximize their profit by producing the goods with which they achieve the highest possible return. This return is derived from the market price minus the labor and transport costs required to produce and provide these goods. For example, a fruit grower near a big city can sell fresh apples in the market, a fruit grower from a distant region would have to sell his apples as dried fruit in order to save transport costs.
