	Today, it is a landscape architect’s task in China to save the land suitable for food production. We think that with this particular project in Shenyang Architectural University in Northern China they have done a great job combining urban landscape with rural one and creating a relationship between human and nature. It is also good that both sides take advantage of it, for example the students can go outside during the brakes to read, communicate with friends or relax, further on, they can use that landscape for learning how to grow rice – they become part of the productive landscape. In addition, the recreational area around the school is used for growing rice, which looks very attractive and produces food as well. In conclusion, they have supported the traditional food production as well as the new uses of the landscape. This landscape is a good example of how agricultural landscape becomes part of an urbanized environment. In addition, this project shows how cultural identity can be created by an ordinary productive landscape, a rice-field.

	The key word of the concept for Shenyang Architectural University Campus is productive landscape, which is a efficient and economical land use. Under the reducing arable lands and increasing of population in world, the future landscape should be more efficient and economical. The concept of landscape should be regarded as a good way to solve the problems during the developing process. The vision of future landscapes will be always concerned with the relationship between nature and people.

			'''Comment to work of Kassel from Montevideo:'''

			The Shenyang Architectural University Campus in China is a very good example for the study of a case that soon will be a problem for all the world. Thought in these terms, it is clear that for the concept of landscape the aesthetic component would not be so much important. A landscape architecture ought to redefine its role towards this situation.

			'''Comment to work of Kassel from Montevideo:'''

			The necessity of food production in a country with limited tillable land makes that a simple rice paddy, being just a cultivable territory, becomes part of the cultural identity of China and transforms itself in a possible target-landscape for the nation.

	The overwhelming urbanization process in China is inevitably encroaching upon a large portion of China’s arable lands. With a population of 1.3 billion people, but with only 18% arable land, China is in danger of using up one of its very valuable and limited resources.
