Someone argues that
countries

 should produce the
food
Use synonyms
 their citizens consume, and minimize the import from other
countries
Use synonyms
. I understand that people may have concerns about importing

 making their country relying on other

 on
food
Use synonyms
 industry which is a critical industry, but in
such
Linking Words
 a peaceful world, and goods importing and exporting is so common nowadays, I don't agree with
this
Linking Words
 opinion with the following reasons.
First
Linking Words
 of all, not every country can produce enough
food
Use synonyms
 for itself, especially some small
countries
Use synonyms
 which don't have enough fertilized land. The cost of cultivating
food
Use synonyms
 is much higher than importing
food
Use synonyms
 from other
countries
Use synonyms
.
For example
Linking Words
, Korea is a population-dense country, and it imports a lot of vegetables, pork, fruit from China, because China can provide a variety of
food
Use synonyms
 at a low price and it is close to Korea, it is a wise choice to do the deal.
Secondly
Linking Words
, some
food

 is only available from certain
countries
Use synonyms
, and they are very welcomed across the whole world, importing that
food
Use synonyms
 could provide more choice for people. Tropical fruits,
for example
Linking Words
, are very tasty
food
Use synonyms
, but they can only be produced in
countries
Use synonyms
 in tropical regions like Thailand. It is almost impossible for
countries
Use synonyms
 like Japan to plant those fruits, and the most reasonable way to have the Japanese enjoy them is to import them from other
countries
Use synonyms
. To conclude, I believe that if other
countries

 can provide some
food
Use synonyms
 at lower cost, or some
food
Use synonyms
 welcomed by people but not available on the domestic farm, it is totally fine to import them.
