Is using air transport to export fruit and vegetables to countries where they cannot be grown or are out of season a positive development?

With the growth in aviation, many areas tend to transfer foods by air transport to places where they can not be grown. I would argue
this
is not a positive development. On the one hand, many nations believe that
this
is a positive development because of several reasons.
Firstly
, it is to give a chance to some people to try some kinds of foods which are not available in their nations.
For instance
, taking Qatar as an example which is a very hot country and planting some sort of fruits like pomegranate and orange can impossibly be grown.
Secondly
, it can be a good source of income for both countries and leads to enhance their economies.
For example
, a country like Nepal only depended on exporting their vegetables to other countries.
Thus
, these would not have been possible without using air transport to transport these supplies.
On the other hand
, there are several reasons why I do not agree with the above argument.
Firstly
, in today's world, one of the biggest issues that our country is experiencing is global warming due to the increasing number of planes.
Furthermore
, planes require powerful engines and it releases a huge amount of CO2 which is the main reason for global warming.
Secondly
, it is to neglect farming products which have a negative effect on the farmers.
For instance
,in a recent survey published in the UK, the farmers have seen almost %20 a drop in their profits, because their government imports fruits from other nations. To sum up,
although
exporting foods to other regions has some positive points, I would argue that it is a negative development. After a thorough analysis on
this
subject, I can say that, if we can not control global warming some countries will be disappeared in the future because of melting ices from the poles.
