derelict areas
I dont think it only about harvesting. These areas have been definitely used before for some purpose.

v.s.
propongo, in aggiunta a derelict areas, che può andar bene in alcuni casi, anche "areas of former industrial use" o "former industrial areas" o "obsolete industrial zones", che mi è capitato di incontrare in testi riguardanti problematiche urbanistiche.
ciao

concordo anche con \"brown-field sites\", molto appropriato e specialistico, anche se implica, credo, problematiche di contaminazione e bonifica del terreno

brown-field sites
This term is used in U.K. to define areas formerly industrial i.e. cleared factory sites or derelict sites. Developers are encouraged to use them instead of "green-field" sites i.e.out of town sites.
