Asked by Raye

If we can import all our food from abroad, why do people choose to support local farmers and ranchers?

i need some good points, I understand the support for local farmers as they bring in natural foods however i need to expand on this? any other points?

cheaper because less transportation costs
patriotic to support local growers
It benefits local people to have revenue from food sales stay in the community. (The farmer uses the money he gets from selling food to you to buy goods you make or sell.)
