According to the reading passage, it is stated that since the growth of the broccoli is restricted to the cooler regions, scientists are trying to create a new type of it that can be grown on the regions despite their hotter summers. The article provides some benefits of this action. However, the lecturer refutes the assumptions made in the reading passage and presents three solid reasons to challenge them.
Firstly, the reading claims that as the transportation costs of the locally produced broccoli decreases, broccoli costs for consumers fall. The professor casts doubt on this point by saying that this approach will not necessarily make the broccoli cheaper. She states the new created broccoli would have lower yields than the traditional one, and its production rate is less, which in turn, requires to be sold more pricely.
Secondly, the article posits that because the new type of broccoli is being produced by traditional breeding ways, unlike the public belief it will probably be more desirable and more safe. In contrast, the professor says that whatever it be, public still might be suspicious of it. According to her, since the financial aid of this program comes from the same companies that use genetic modifications, people may distrust this approach.
Finally, the reading says that locally grown broccoli is much more healthier because it can be consumed right after harvesting. The professor opposes this point by explaining that there are other vegetables that have the similar nutrients, such as Kale, which has compatible health benefits, and it can be picked up even in the winter and fall. Therefore, she believes educating people about eating fresh locally available vegetables can be more beneficial than breeding new type of broccoli.
