Answer:

Von Thunen model explains the agricultural land usage which varies from the central market.

Step-by-step explanation:

The main aim of the Von Thunen model shows the agricultural land use pattern from the market. This model is not suitable for today's scenario because it has been proposed before the green and the technological revolution. This model over-empasised the transportation cost but today transportation is much a viability than the other costs. It even ignored the fossil fuel usage and several modifications which has been done by the several philosophers.
