I love pineapple especially if they are sweet just like the one in the photo above. Because it is sweet and succulent, hubby bought another piece of pineapple. Why not? The price is only $1.99/each.
THE LAW OF SUPPLY & DEMAND.
If the demand for that product is high, the price is low.

Fresh produce will get pricier than ever before. The blame game is that of the supply chain, transportation of such goods and because of the climate and disaster that happened somewhere in B.C. That some of the fresh produce will be coming from U.S.A. and maybe imported from Mexico and South America.
Not too many farmers in Canada even if there are large agricultural lands for such cultivation and demand of fresh produce. Most of the workers in those agri-business farmlands were immigrants from other countries of course. New immigrants...so many of them are vegetarians.
I'm not a farmer and I am not into agriculture. However, I studied Taxation and Agrarian Reform in Philippines.
I have relatives who owned tract of lands for farming (rice fields) some of his inherited lands were then given to homeless people. ? I was shocked about the whole story. I don't know if he was force to give them up or what could be the deal? Weird right?
Long time ago, The Japanese invaded Philippines and grabbed so many agricultural lands from Filipino farmers. It didn't last long though, The Americans came to help save the Philippines out from Japanese occupation.
Nowadays, people are fighting in their own lands as if there is a civil war. Are the lands even solid lands or tundra? What's underneath the grounds?
