Some people believe that purchasing imported agricultural products has a positive effect. Others think that consuming domestic products is better.
Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.
There are divergent opinions about whether or not it is better for people to buy imported items or domestic items. Some people believe that customers are guaranteed to buy various products thanks to imported products. However, others argue that buying domestic products is helpful to develop economy for their home countries.
Many people have stated that imported products offer various options for people. This is because it is hard for one country to cultivate some produces due to conditions of weather, soil, geological features or agricultural technologies. For instance, in South Korea, people find it hard to buy some tropical fruits, such as bananas, mangos, oranges and so on. Although Korean agriculturists are working to produce these fruits in green houses, the flavours of fruits are less delicious than imported tropical fruits from countries specialized in cultivating these tropical produces. It is clearly showed that people can purchase better qualities and flavours fruits when they include imported fruits for grocery lists.
On the other hand, other people are opposed to this idea and argue that people should consume domestic products. This is because buying domestic products is helpful to develop local economy in a home country. To be specific, some imported produces are cheaper than domestic produces, so consumers prefer to buy them. As a result, to appeal customers in markets, local farmers sell items with cheaper prices, but poor qualities. If residents demand constantly domestic products, local agricultures could increase profits and become encouraged to develop agricultural technologies to produce better and various products.
In conclusion, it is a true fact that imported products provide divergent options for customers. However, people can support local farmers to increase their profits and develop agricultural technologies to produce high-quality products by purchasing domestic products.
