Do You Think That These Are The Best Solutions For Your Problem?

Farmers Markets & How Brazil Is Seeing Increases

By Robert Sutter


It doesn't take much to figure out that farmers markets are growing tremendously in terms of popularity. Individuals have grown more and more accustomed to having some of the best crops out there and they will be able to attain them if they can cover the prices. For those who can, they will receive items that will improve their health in the long term. Understanding such markets, how has the level of growth changed overtime, more specifically in areas of the world outside of the United States?

It seems as though farmers markets are seeing such a level of growth in Brazil. According to an article on Occupy, there is a growing demand for fresher food in the area and it is a demand that certainly has to be met. One of Brazil's biggest cities in Belo Horizonte showed a 10% increase in produce demand over the first half of 2013, in fact, which goes to show just how strong authorities like Colle Farmers Market truly are. What has been done for such a demand to arise, you may wonder?

There is so much information out on the Internet and I think that social media is primarily to thank for this. The report went into detail about how Brazil has put 11.2 pounds of pesticides to use for each person every year. If you want an idea of how bad this is, keep in mind that this is twice as much as is seen in the United States. Understanding this, it goes without saying that changes have to be made with better crops being made visible as well.

If nothing else, educating others about the risks of pesticide usage should be enough to help elevate the demand for organic crops. Some fruits and vegetables have them in greater amounts than others, whether you realize this or not. Strawberries, for example, can become especially ridden with them due to the small bumps and ridges on the outside. This makes it more difficult for them to be cleaned with normal water since it is very likely that you won't be able to rinse every area as effectively.

In my eyes, more areas of the world should have greater amounts of organic vegetable markets and for good reasons. To me, these markets have the chance to provide more people with some of the best crops that you can imagine. Along with this, though, comes information and I'd like to think that key facts will be able to elevate the level of demand that there is for such crops. In time, these healthful crops will most certainly have a place in the regimen of every prospective buyer.
