The trend of sending large amount of food from one country to another is a complex issue. I will discuss both positive and negative aspects in further paragraph.
On the positive side, importing process can be provide wide variety of food and essential nutrients those country where food can unavailable due to low growth of agriculture and extreme climate. This method can also easy to access products those area limited food available. Additionally, this can also the maintain of price of food and provide importance product in underprivileged area.
Looking in the darker side, imported food also have negative consequences. More rely on other country can become loss of local farming and reduce the job opportunities. In this way, dependent country can not success in future and always weak in their agriculture also they can not receive on time when need this problem they also face. For instance, those country achieve and compete with other country when they grow on themselves as compared those who rely on other country products. Moreover, delivered large amount of food for large distance can cause emission of greenhouse gas emission and contribute to impact the climate change.
In my opinion, a balance approach is need. Receive food products can also be beneficial and enjoy nutrients that not take in your country but on other side rely on other have negative effect in your country growth. This can decrease the local farming. To illustrate the point, it is necessary to regrow your land as well as connected with other country to purchasing and selling method.
So, in a nutshell, importing food provide different variety and nutrients food also provide trading in reasonable price but on downside completely depend on buying food not fulfill their requirements can create very dangerous condition like poverty. One country can compete and achievement their goal when they struggle themselves and build relation with other country by trading.
