Food is essential to people’s daily routines, and in the past, people consumed local in season or available foods. However nowadays, a wide variety of products are available in everywhere. In this essay, I will discuss why the advantages of this development outweigh its disadvantages.
On one hand, when all products are available to people, they may not have to wait for anything, whereas if it were seasonal food people would have to wait until it is ripe. For instance, people from Russia may want to eat tropical fruits but it is winter. However, they just order them from Brazil or another country where tropical fruits in season. Additionally, it also boosts global trading and contributes to economic growth. Countries can just improve their economy just trading with other county like Colombia or Ethiopia. It can lead huge money capital.
On the other hand, it also leads to overdependence on imports. Moreover when the country that exports the items starts sanctions, it also has a negative effect on the country. Citizens will not be ready for this and it will damage the economy and residents. Furthermore, it also leads to the decline of local agriculture and the loss of traditional production.
To sum up, it would be good to improve exports or just try to make products more available. Thus, it also enhance the country. However in this context, there is a negative impact with overdependence on imports or decline of local agriculture
