Rapid urbanisationRapid urbanization, along with urbanUrban poverty, leads to social and environmental challengesChallenges that require cities to improve their resilienceResilience. Urban farmingUrban farming is promoted as an essential strategyStrategy for improving cities’ resilienceResilience by providing ecosystem servicesEcosystem services, namely strengthening the community, improving the urban environmentEnvironments and saving energy. The research aimed to estimate urban farmingUrban farming benefits in the context of ecosystem services in the monetary unit. It took place in Malang City, East Java–Indonesia, as a case study. The study utilised the Total Economic Value framework in conjunction with the Economics of Ecosystems and Biodiversity concept to develop and estimate indicators of urban farmingUrban farmingbenefitBenefitinto valuationValuation through the direct market and stated preferences approaches. The study employed field surveys, in-depth interviews and remote sensing analysisRemote sensing analysis. Here we show for the first time that the Total Economic Value of urban farming benefits reached up to US$ 13.11 in a square metre annually if all urban farmingUrban farming forms occupy a square metre each. However, this value had a gap with the benchmark of US$ 15.89/m2 annually. The gap value could be a policy recommendation to incentivise citizens to participate in emerging urban farming initiatives actively. This benefit value indicates that urban farmingUrban farming is feasible and valuable for further developmentDevelopment.
