Some people debate that locally produced
items should be solely relied upon to boost
of a region as well as to protect the environment as compared to
brought from far flung areas. Personally, I agree with
approach partially.
the benefits to rely on indigenously produced items are many, but viable options to
the needs of masses for some regions become limited by
approach.
By opting
strategy, there will be cheaper
items available well as environmentally friendly. The farming-products grown in surplus are exported and as
their prices remain relatively high. Take mango farming in Pakistan, the country is the single largest producer of mango fruit, yet the prices are high as most of the yield is exported and
most of forest land is converted to agricultural units to accommodate high demands.
the natives do not enjoy
delicious fruit to their fill and they are experiencing
of climate change as well.
Another reason consistent with
line of thinking to rely on indigenous farming is that people will enjoy healthy fruits and vegetables. People throughout the world have become accustomed to eating fruits and
are treated by
as shelf life of fresh products is merely hours. There was a documentary broadcasted on the Discovery
focused on the nutritional value of
fruits and vegetables. It concluded backed with ample scientific research that the efficacy of these products
by cold-storage.
, foods that
through cold-
is not good for health.
Some regions of the world are very
and these states rely heavily on others to meet the need of their people.
, China has a huge
and it depends a lot on imports of
items to feed its
. The option to depend only on native farmers will result in famine for China.
, indigenous production in
case is not a viable and sane approach.
All in all, the befits of
strategy are numerous which includes tackling climate change as well as availability of nutritious foods
, practically
strategy cannot be adopted in
regions.
