Many foods are shipped from far away. Some people think that eating local food is more environmentally and economically friendly. Do you think the advantages outweigh its disadvantages?

Nowadays the import of food items is growing in a country. It is often believed by a group of individuals that promoting a country’s own bread is much more beneficial in terms of economy and environment. To commence with, one evident benefit of consuming local meat is that it is habitat friendly. The fruits picked from the farm directly consumed by the local people and

no need to transport it from farm to other countries through vehicles. As a consequence, the pollution level mitigated and the climate remained healthy.

For instance

big lorries from the collection area to ports. All these create a lot of pollution and can be avoided by dominating local people’s feed. Another advantageous benefit is that it increases the economy of the country. People get a snack at an economical price directly from the farmers.

This

seems to be a win-win situation for both. Farmer gets motivated and focuses more on quality foods if inhabitants appreciate his farming by giving importance to his cuisine over foreign.

increases which results in an increase in the economy.

On the other hand

do not allow cultivating that much of varieties.

For instance

as India and Pakistan. If Russia will not promote foreign rice, their people may stay away from the variety of quality rice offered by others. In conclusion, I believe the benefit in terms of financial growth and green environment eventually overweighs any negative of providing a variety of foodstuff to individuals.
