Summary

DescriptionIndigenous fruits.png	English: This map indicates the most widely sold fruits (aka "fruits of commerce") and the most widely sold nuts. Note that they thus not list all of the fruits/nuts, and most are fruits grown in temperate regions (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_culinary_fruits and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_culinary_nuts Instead, the map is simply used as an aid to quickly see where most fruits are native to. This way, changes can be made to the global marketplace, producing the fruits/nuts only at their centre of origin, hereby improving biodiversity, and decreasing pesticide use as well as supporting the cultural diversity/heritage of a region. A secundary effect will also be that the fruits become more costly to produce in excessively large amounts, more costly to export/use worldwide. This ensures that a suitable base price can be attained for the produce by the growers, and this way, things such as "fairtrade" can be avoided, and the produce can be bought/sold at the prices set down by the WTO. Note that to improve the growing of the crops even more, agricultural techniques such as polyculture (as opposed to monoculture), the use of organic farming techniques, ... should be used. In addition to selling and buying the food via the auction/market, community-supported agriculture (CSA) can also be used.
