Countries should produce the food that their population eat, and import as little as possible. To what extend do you agree or disagree?

Since the beginning of time agriculture is what make it possible for humans to thrive and evolve. Currently, every nation grows some of their basic needs and buy from other places the rest.
However
, there are some individuals who believe that each country should produce their own
food
in almost totality. I tend to disagree with that statement because it is either impossible or economically silly.
Firstly
, some types of crops only grow in specific environments, which would be expensive to replicate.
In other words
, some kinds of
food
only thrive in cold weather while others need a warm climate and water.
For example
,
countries
that have extreme weather would have to build controlled environments to achieve
this
.
Therefore
, the prices would rise substantially because replicate different climates is too expensive.
Secondly
, even in
countries
with regular
temperatures
Add a comma

this
is impossible.
This
is because the country would have to build farms where there are houses or technology companies now. Take Japan as an example.
This
nation lacks land and to be able to grow most of their
food
they would have to destroy their technology factories to give space for crops.
Nevertheless
, there is not enough land to be sustainable in the long term. In conclusion, I totally disagree that all nations should stop import
food
.
This
is because in places where it is possible the prices would rise exponentially and in other
countries
this
is impracticable.
Thus
,
this
would make our world retrocede in time as most
countries
would be worried about agriculture.
