in relation to

production

. In

this

essay, I am going to examine

this

question from both points of view and

then

Linking Words

give my own opinion on the matter. On one side of the argument there are people who argue that the benefits of

technology

in

food

Use synonyms

production

Use synonyms

considerably outweighs its disadvantages. The main reason for believing

this

is that with the advancement of

technology

processing and packaging

food

has become a seamless process. It is

also

possible to say that with the advent of agricultural machines for land cultivation, the standard of

food

produced has increased tremendously. One good example of

is the

factory in Kuala Lumpur where a thousand bags of beans are produced daily.

On the other hand

, it is

also

possible to make the opposing case. It is often argued that in fact consuming technologically produced

food

is dangerous to the health of the consumer. People often have

this

opinion because they feel that processed

food

tend to lose more than 80 percent of its nutrients in comparison to fresh farm produce naturally cultivated and consumed. A

second

point is that due the use of machineries for the

production

and processing of

food

the unemployment is at an all-time high as workers are being replaced with machines. A particularly good example is the mass

lay off

the act of laying off an employee or a work force

of 1000 workers from Landu farms in 2018, these workers complained about being replaced with machines. In conclusion, I believe both arguments have their merits. On balance,

however

, I feel that

technology

has and will always be a blessing to mankind in the area of

food

production

.

This

is because more people are being fed and are able to afford these commodities due to the reduced sale prices.
