Specialization
The current notion of decentralization,
questions the identity of todays cities and
regions. These identities are strongly
connected to their specializations, not only
concerning financial markets, but also in
energy, agriculture, leisure, service and
industrial markets as well. Can, within the
contemporary context of global networks,
cities and regions still specialize, by nature
of their territorial, economic and historical
circumstances? Is specialization (still) useful
in times of globalization? Can specialization,
due to its concentration, attract targeted
companies, and can it enforce knowledge-
industries and innovation, so as to turn
certain regions into centers of excellence?
How can regional specialization generate
new development, and how can this help to
stimulate mutual trade and therefore mutual
interdependency, by virtue of differentiation?
And, can this interdependency stimulate
economic and political stability?

Agro spezialization: available crop land:
Which regions shall specialize in agriculture/food production?
Less than 10% of the planets surface is covered by fertile soils
suited for food supply. Agriculture and its demand to feed a
population of 12 billion at the end of this century pleads as well
for a regional specialization.
Scanning
the
world
for
terroir
definition
Where are the best places in the planet to
fulfill a hyperproductive quantity and quality
wise- agricultural specialization? Unlike
some other economical sectors (like finance
or technology) , agriculture depends on the
concentration of a series of geographical
factors to reach high yield levels. Its
competitive advantages are in strong relation
to specific resources so the creation of an
agriculture specialized region should flourish
as long as they are present as a starting
point. Which are the places with the optimal
cohabitation of the most fertile soils, the most
xxx climate and the most abundant water
resources? Where are the planets terroirs?
Soil + climate + water
Soil: alfisol + mollisol
It is believed that it may take 500 years for an inch of soil to
develop so its presence constitutes an invaluable resource.
Among the different types of soils, those known as mollisols and
alfisols constitute the richest in organic matter and therefore the
best for growing healthy plants.
+ Climate; Mediterranean
Within the different climates classified on Earth, the type
known as Mediterranean climate gathers the most suitable
characteristics for efficient agricultural production in terms of
precipitation levels and average temperatures.

Superimposing the different layers required we find out very few
places with highly competitive advantages to develop into major
global specialized agriculture centers. Can we investigate some of
them to outline its maximum potentials? Can we turn some of
them into the ultimate agricultural machines?

RAILWAY SITUATION IN VALLEY
Unfortunately CVC itself has a very bad infrastructure. In terms of
roads and trains it has only one highway and one train line
(no high speed trains) providing a very slow and poor ground
accessibility.

CVC could build two other highways: one next to the coast and for-
est explotation area and another scenic highway on the Andes
foothills with a fantastic view over the valley providing accessibility
for the production of pomaceas in those slopes.
A fast train paralle to the existing highway would also shorten con-
siderably the enormous length of the valley.

WITH APPROPIATE INFRASTRUCTURE THE FRESH FRUIT PRODUCTION
INCREASES 40 OR 50 % AND JUSTIFIES AN AIRPORT
In order to export the production of CVC its infrastructure is even
more dramatic.
CVC has no major harbour and no airport. Having to transport
everything to distant neighbouring harbours in Valparaiso and
Santiago International Airport.
CVC Airports
+
Many products of CVC (flowers, berries, mushrooms) require
fast transportation to its destinations. Could we imagine an
international airport in CVC for more accessibility to worlds
markets, could it be paid by an increase of that production? Due to
space (approximation cone) and visibility (fog) constraints it could
be located next to the Maule river with a close interaction to the
new harbour.
Due to this lack of infrastructure CVC is loosing more than US$600
million a year in late arrivals and product damages.
Given that the Maule river (at the middle of CVC) used to be
navigatable to a certain extent until the forest explotation residues
filled its calado, we could imagine to redig it and turn it into a
competitive harbour. Zoned according to the different products
and accesed by inland canals from the optimized waterways for
barges.

Are CVC energy resources enoug
gh to accomplish CVC AGROCITY?
CVC is in Chile's 6732,9 Mw SIC electricity System. CVC contributes
with 51,2% 3449.1 Mw. Most of it hydroelctric energy (79,8%)
SIC consumption would be 54.932,6 Gwh. 71,8% more growing in
22961,3 Gwh.
SIC can only provide electricity until 2006. With agromaximazation
process consumption increases even more.

CVC Urban Settlements
CVC Urban Settlements have the origin in spanish
XVII century colonization. Main cities were positioned
every one day horseride distance.
2003 48.835 ha. of urban surface.
THE LAWS OF THE INDIES
given by Felipe II, on july 13, 1573, in the Forest of Segovia
City Planning Ordinances
34. In order to populate those areas that are already discovered, pacified, and under our
mandate, as well as areas that might be discovered and pacified in the course of time,
the following sequence should be adhered to: choose the province, county, and place
that will be settled, taking into consideration the health of the area, which will known
from the abundance of old men or of young men of good complexion, natural fitness and
color, and without illness; and in the abundance of healthy animals of sufficient size, and
of healthy fruits and fields where no toxic and noxious things are grown, but that it be
good climate, the sky clear and benign, the air pure and soft, without impediment or
alterations and of good temperature, without excessive heat or cold, and having to
decide, it is better that it be cold.
35. And they should be in fertile areas with an abundance of fruits and fields, of good
land to plant and harvest, of grasslands to grow livestock, of mountains and forests for
wood and building materials for homes and edifices, and of good and plentiful water
supply for drinking and irrigation.
36. And that they should be populated by Indians and natives to whom we can preach
the gospels since this is the principal objective for which we mandate that these discov-
eries and settlements be made.
37. And they should have good access and outlet by sea and by land, and also good
roads and passage by water, in order that they may be entered and departed easily with
commerce, while bringing relief and establishing defenses.
38. Once the region, province, county, and land are decided upon by the expert discov-
erers, select the site to build a town and capital of the province and its subjects, without
harm to the Indians for having occupied the area or because they agree to it of good
will.
39. The site and position of the towns should be selected in places where water is near-
by and where it would be possible to demolish neighboring towns and properties in order
to take advantage of the materials that are essential for building; and, [these sites and
positions should be suitable] also for farming, cultivation, and pasturation, so as to avoid
excessive work and cost, since any of the above would be costly if they were far.
40. Do not select sites that are too high up because these are affected by winds, and
access and service to these are difficult, nor in lowlands, which tend to be unhealthy;
choose places of medium elevation that enjoy good winds, especially from the north and
south, and if there were mountains or hills, these should be in the west or in the east,
and it there should be a need to build in high places, do it in areas not subjected to fogs;
take note of the terrain and its accidental features and in case that there should be a
need to build on the banks of a river, it should be on the eastern bank, so when the sun
rises it strikes the town first, then the water.
41. Do not select sites for towns in maritime locations because of the danger that exists
of pirates and because they are not very healthy, and because in these [locations] there
are less people able to work and cultivate the land, nor is it possible to instill in them
these habits. Unless the site is in an area where there are good and principal harbors,
among these, select for settlement only those that are necessary for the entry of com-
merce and for the defense of the land.

CVC HAS TO AVOID THIS GROWTH
This population increase leads agromax to danger
Agro surface loss because of urban expansion is
close to 1200 ha pr year. Most of these lands are
excellent flat, irrigated and super productive lands.
If this process keeps on going, by 2050 the agro
surface losses will reach the katastrophic amount of
60000 ha. CVC AGROCITY has to stop this process to
be born. New lands used for new urban settlements
should not be suitable for agriculture.

Ciudad Valle Central Chile CVC
This book is the first chapter of an
upcoming on the potential of the Valle
Central in Chile.This is a chapter about
the possible global role of the valley
and nesseccities to achieve this.
Can the Valle, by focussing agressively
on a new satelite Agropole, become
an examplary excercise for the claim
for an intense global position in
agriculture? Can it then claim for an
examplary role for decentralizing the
South American Metropolitan areas?
It is part of a research program by the
University of Talca in collaboration with
MVRDV in Rotterdam, Holland in
2003/2004, that will be published in
2004.
