Some feel that countries should produce most of the food that is eaten in their country and import as little as possible. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Nowadays, there is an increasing rate of
countries
that are importing goods to ensure that their citizens will have

Secondly

To conclude
, with an exception in extreme cases,
countries
should import fewer

However
, as much as importing foods is necessary to support the basic needs of the nations, it should not supersede the local production.
