In many countries, more and more people choose to buy imported food rather than food produced locally. Why do people buy imported food? What could be done to encourage people to buy local food?

There is a tremendously controversial perspective heating up a debate whether people have an inclination to consume less domestic food than they used to. I believe that there are two main problems associated with why imported foodstuffs are preferred, and

two measurements we can take to boost local food consumption. Without a shadow of a doubt, the largest problem stemming from

competition. In many developing countries, local

foods

whose

quality

is becoming more unfit or even harmful for consumers’ health would have to share their market with better products from overseas.

For example

, domestic fruits with excessive preservative content can be taken.

Hence

, customers who tend to become wiser are making more informed decisions and are willing to pay more for healthy goods from internationally prestigious brands. Another major problem is that the massive importation of

foods

is giving local people a wide range of selections and shopping experiences than that in the conventional market.

Instead

of eating seasonally, imported foodstuffs of all kinds satisfy consumers’ tastes at any time they wish. Turning to possible solutions, probably the most effective measure is to enhance domestic products. Production processes should be under

Secondly

, it is necessary to support biological technology development. The abundance and variety of locally grown

foods

would provide citizens with more choices;

therefore

, they would buy less imported

to save more money. In conclusion, the problems caused are not only the
