Globalization

Positive effects of Globalization:
I think one positive aspect of globalization is the increase in the production of crops when countries grow the crops that they specialize in meaning that the time is decreased in the production as they country already has sources to grow the crop with no problem. Instead of two countries growing crops differently , countries are assigned their specific counties and the production is increased.
Another positive effects of globalization is that it increases the export of food which otherwise would not be imported from the country. Because one of the rule of globalization is that no country can refuse to import the product of a country which participates in globalization for any reason. This way the import and export of food increases and the undeveloped countries also benefit from it as their crops are sold in developed countries and they profit from it.
One more positive effect of globalization is the movement of food from country to country. People are introduced with crops from all different countries rather that just the crops that they produce.
Negative effects of Globalization:
Globalization has many negative effects too, the one that I most don't like is that some countries get to produce more profitable crops while some countries get to produce lee profitable crops and thus are in loss. While globalization is not good fro the farmers as well as it is based on big businesses and the farmers suffer losses from it.
My thoughts:
I think that globalization has some impact on my life too as I get to eat crops from many different countries rather than just eating crops from mu country. I am introduced to new flavors. Plus, I am also against that developed countries have so much food while the undeveloped countries suffer from malnutrition. By, globalization the undeveloped countries also get a chance to make profit and this makes me feel really great. I also like the togetherness that globalization brings that countries work together to increase food production to feed the growing population.
