Today, some food travels travel thousands of miles from farms to consumers, Some people think it would be better to our environment and economy if people only eat local food. To what extent do the advantages outweigh the advantages?

Some of the

food

today is transported for thousands of miles from the place where it is produced to the place where it is consumed and it is better to consume local cuisine for environmental and economical benefits. The advantages of

this

opinion will outweigh the disadvantages. The primary advantage is that the change in the quality of

food

due to transportation will be minimal in

such

situations.

Furthermore

, the diseases that come with the consumption of

such

low-quality meal can be avoided as the body can absorb more nutrients from fresh

food

.

For instance

,

Last

month the people in Delhi felt sore after drinking the coconut water from KERALA and

this

is because it took 3 days for the coconut water to reach Delhi from KERALA and

this

took a toll on the quality of coconut water.

Therefore

, if we minimize the difference of time that takes from producing

food

products to consuming them

then

we can avoid the negative consequences attached to it.

Moreover

, the monetary benefits for both the producer as well as consumer of the

food

as huge.

However

, there are exceptions like some patients suffering some health aliments need a specific type of

food

that is

grown in a faraway place.As an example, People suffering from high sugar need to take dark chocolate

that is

produced only in Central Africa as it does not contain sugar.Apart from

this

, the transport sector gets about a tenth of its business by moving foodstuff cargo. As an instance, AIR CHINA company reported losses for

last

year after CHINA banned the intake of Australian beef. So, the only minor drawbacks of

this

situation are addressing the specific dietary requirements of some people and mitigating the minor losses reported by the transport sector. To conclude, with the examples and reasons provided, I would like to reiterate that the transport of

food

should always be as less as possible.
