 The city of Gaborone, with a population of 225,000 in 2001, has grown from a very small village to become the capital city of Botswana in a period of less than 36 years. Subsistence and commercial agriculture are both found throughout Gaborone and Greater Gaborone and there are a variety of spatial contexts in which production occurs.
