Namen prispevka je kriticen pregled obstojecih raziskav in zakonodaje v povezavi z umescanjem kmetij v prostor ter analiziranje izkusenj, s katerimi se soocajo prostorski nacrtovalci v slovenskih obcinah. Analiza je rezultat obsežne raziskave o umescanju kmetijskih objektov v prostor in resevanju s tem povezanih konfliktov, na podlagi izkusenj 190 slovenskih obcin. S pomocjo spletnega vprasalnika smo sprasevali o stanju na podrocju kmetijske dejavnosti v obcinah, njihovih strateskih nacrtih na tem podrocju ter morebitnih pobudah za selitev kmetij na novo lokacijo oziroma njihovo siritev. S pomocjo odgovorov smo prepoznali glavne prostorske izzive kmetijstva ter razmisljali, kako bo na njih odgovorila posodobljena prostorska zakonodaja.

The analysis is the result of an extensive survey on selecting sites for farm building and resolving related conflicts, in which the experience of 190 Slovenian municipalities was collected. With the help of the online questionnaire we were analyzing the status if agriculture in Slovenian municipalities and strategies for its future development.
