Producing food domestically is both a cultural and national security issue. However, food is not (relatively) abundant and cheap because the world relied on domestic markets. It is so because logistics have improved to the point where food produced in areas of greatest natural advantage can now be delivered globally.
So what happens to the market for locally grown agricultural product in France, for example, when it is far cheaper to import wheat from Ukraine, and fruit and vegetables from North Africa? They require some form of price protection to remain in business. This raises costs for french consumers, and when negotiations break down, the conflicts can tie up large parts of the country at considerable economic cost.
you are such a globalist shill. You are good at defending the indefensible
