Today’s fresh food like vegetables or fruits travels thousands of miles from the rural areas or farms before it reaches customers in cities or urban areas. Why is this? Is this a positive or negative trend?

Nowadays fresh
food
like fruits and vegetables are transported to urban
areas
or cities from thousands of miles from villages and from farms. I strongly believe that exporting
food
from a village is a healthy trend.
This
essay discusses the positive trends along with the reasons and
also
gives justification for the same in ensuring paragraph. To embark upon, Cultivation of fresh
food
in the developed cities and in rural
areas
are becoming critical in today’s world. Toxic waste from the towns acts as a major concern for the farmers in rural
areas
. Industrial effluent from the factories destroys the fertility of the sand,
thus
causing it to degrade and become impotent.
For instance
, a recent survey conducted by ”Agricultural Times” dated 28th June 2018 stated that 80% of agricultural lands in the city of Hyderabad, said to be toxic and unusable.Eating
food
from
such
wastelands causes many health problems.
Thus
, fresh
food
must be exported from rural, toxic-free
areas
.
Furthermore
, Fresh fruits and vegetables grown in rural
areas
are said to be more nutritious than city grown
food
. It is said that soil in villages are mixed with bio-waste (vegetable and fruit leftovers) which adds extra nutritional values to the soil and as well as
food
from which it is grown. For ,instance a recent study conducted by a
food
scientist at Harvard University concluded that Apples grown in a specific village in Galena, Illinois have 80% more nutritious value than apples grown in the city of Houston.
Thus
, exporting fresh
food
from rural
areas
ensures good health In conclusion, Soil in the cities and urban
areas
are unviable compared to that of rural
areas
.
Thus
, fresh fruits and vegetables that are cultivated in urban
areas
are much more healthy and nutritious
