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?

I think that you have to look at the amount of information that can be brought about thanks to social media. After all, the report said that pesticide usage in Brazil has been extreme, twice as much being utilized from one person to then ext. In fact, Brazil has shown 11.2 pounds being put to use per person each year. Knowing that such a component is heavily utilized, it goes without saying that changes must be made and I feel as though very few can argue.

How important is it to educate people as far as these particular fruit items are concerned? I believe that it is one of the most vital aspects to go about, especially when you think about how many fruits and vegetables have tremendous amounts of pesticides. Strawberries, for example, are especially difficult to rinse off seeing as how their textures possess those characteristic ridges. These bumps, as miniscule as they are, oftentimes make it difficult for cleaning to be done, which is a problem to say the least.

I feel as though more individuals should have organic vegetable markets seen in high abundance and I am sure that most would agree with me on the matter. In my eyes, these markets are some of the best and it is difficult for me to say otherwise. Hopefully more information is brought to the surface so that even more demand is seen for these markets. No matter which region of the world you are talking about, healthful crops of many types should be seen in high abundance.
