Summary
[edit]DescriptionIndigenous vegetables.png |
English: This map indicates the most widely sold vegetables (aka "vegetables of commerce"). Note that it thus not list all of the vegetables, and most are vegetables grown in temperate regions. Instead, the map is simply used as an aid to quickly see where most vegetables are native to. This way, changes can be made to the global marketplace, producing the vegetables only at their centre of origin, hereby improving biodiversity, and decreasing pesticide use as well as supporting the cultural diversity/heritage of a region. A secundary effect will also be that the vegetables become more costly to produce in excessively large amounts, more costly to export/use worldwide. This ensures that a suitable base price can be attained for the produce by the growers, and this way, things such as "fairtrade" can be avoided, and the produce can be bought/sold at the prices set down by the WTO. Note that to improve the growing of the crops even more, agricultural techniques such as polyculture (as opposed to monoculture), the use of organic farming techniques, ... should be used. In addition to selling and buying the food via the auction/market, community-supported agriculture (CSA) can also be used.
