Aircraft have been increasingly used to transport fruits and vegetables to some countries where such plants hardly grow or out of season. Some people consider it a good idea, but some people oppose it. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

In modern decades, the number of planes has been increasing to deliver fruit and

vegetables

to other countries where plants are hard to grow or not in season. Some authorities think that it is a great idea but some people decline it.

This

essay will discuss both views and agree with

this

statement. On the one hand, some harbour the belief that importing perishable items by flight is beneficial to consumers’ health. Innumerable studies have shown that

although

it is invisible, the insufficient intake of nutrients, minerals, and vitamins from fruits and

vegetables

may produce health problems

such

as the absence of fibre in daily meals is the chief culprit for poor digestion.

Hence

, it would be a grave mistake to overlook the fact that if nations are confronted with difficulties in feeding the population

due to

extreme weather,

then

importing fruits and

vegetables

is a tactical solution. Examples could be seen in Africa where local

have to go through a food supply crisis by virtue of rapid desertification, and low precipitation imported from neighbouring countries plays an instrumental role in the consumption of individuals.

On the other hand

, the counter-argument raised by objectors is that these commercial activities are detrimental to the economy.

This

belief could be attributed to the fact that when a nation becomes addicted to importing perishable products at low costs, it could be blinded from making optimal use of natural resources to become a self-sufficient country.

In other words

, the heavy reliance on imported goods could be at the expense of food security.

For instance

,

according to

researchers, the unilateral trading activity of importing agricultural goods without exporting specialized products may make a country extremely vulnerable to changes in international relations. To summarize, I side with the stance of the former to a larger extent, by virtue of the fact that taking advantage of various means of transport, namely aeroplanes to convey fruits and

vegetables

is crucially paramount to public health.
