Why are homegrown apples in the UK more expensive than imported bananas? From flooding in Peru to the fight for fair wages, a lot more goes into the price of fruit than what supermarkets charge consumers for

Bananas shipped 5,000 miles cost less than local apples.This system exploits farmers abroad, undercuts local growers, concentrates profit in supermarkets. Local food should be grown & consumed locally — at fair prices for all.
