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?

#food #travel #thousands #miles #farms #consumers #people #environment #economy
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.
