Broccoli is a vegetable that is popular throughout the United States, but it can be grown only in temperate climates with mild summers. Because of this limitation, 90 percent of the broccoli consumed in the United States is grown in the cooler regions of California, on the West Coast. lt must be shipped 4, 000 kilometers across the entire country to reach the populous East Coast.
This situation may soon change, however: scientists are attempting to create a new type of broccoli that can be grown on the East Coast despite the hotter summers there. This project has several potential benefits.
First, growing broccoli on the East Coast and distributing it to nearby grocery stores would lower broccoli costs for consumers Transporting the vegetable from California by truck takes several days, which makes transportation costs high. Growing broccoli locally would reduce transportation costs, so stores could sell broccoli for less money.
Second, the new type of broccoli will probably be much more desirable to consumers than some other new crops. The new broccoli is being created using traditional breeding techniques: researchers are crossbreeding broccoli with other similar plants that have desirable characteristics, such as resistance to hot summers. Other new crops - varieties of squash or maize, for example - were created using genetic modification technology. Genetically modified crops are very controversial: many consumers believe they are unsafe and so reject them. However, the new broccoli will not be in that category.
Third, vegetables are healthiest to eat right after they are harvested because they retain most of their beneficial nutrients and vitamins. The longer it takes for a vegetable like broccoli to reach consumers, the fewer nutrients and vitamins it contains. Broccoli that is grown locally can be eaten much sooner after it is cut, which will make this new broccoli healthier for East Coast residents than California broccoli.
The professor and author have a discussion about weather cultivating a new kind of B will be beneficial to the society or not. Both of them have proposed three suggestions to support their ideas.
To begin with, the author believes that the new type of B which was planted on the east will lower the price of them by eliminating the transportation fees. However, the professor, casts a doubt on it. In other words, the absent of transportation costs didn't significantly reduce the price of B for the reason that the yield of B was too small to allow the entrepreneur to sell them in a low prices. As a result, consumers eventually didn't save any money.
Secondly, even though the author mentions that the cultivation method of these new types of B is not belong to genetic modification technology, which is almost rejected by consumers, the professor holding the opposing opinions. To be specific, the cultivating company are same as the genetic company. Thus, it is common for consumers to be confusing about weather the new B have the risks as genetic modification fruits.
In the end, the author claims that the short time period of sending B to consumers allows them to enjoy the most healthiest fruits. He suggests that the longer the time take for vegetables to reach consumers, the fewer nutrients and vitamins it contains. But the professor doubts it for the following reasons. He indicates that it is true the amount of vitamins is inversely proportional to the time period, but there are already some well-cultivated fruits like cails which can almost provide the same beneficial contents as B. Thus, it seems unnecessary to spend extra money and energy to develop a new kinds of fruits.
