Why do they add chemicals into growing of fruits when they can grow normally without adding any chemicals?

These chemicals added into fruit or vegetable growing are very bad for health and it’s high time they do something on that as many people are getting effected by this

to make them bigger and less flawed the addition of chemicals can make fruit grow unaturally perfect and bigger than normal (though it doesnt taste anywere near as good if it were grown naturally).

That is one bad point about the Green Revolution, and it’s a risk we have to face with the growing needs of this growing world population. The only way to stop this problem is to find healthier natural alternatives to growing more food, which leads to genetically modified foods which grow without chemicals but aren’t really that good themselves either.

Saves ‘em the bother of adding the chemicals at the processing plant….:-)

Several reasons. For one thing, with the current population, it would be almost impossible to try to feed everyone naturally. It’s too slow. Chemicals accelerates growth rate, gets rid of pests, and makes them bigger (thus you’ve got a larger quantity). And for another, it is cheaper than trying to grow it naturally.

In addition to kyhw’s answer it is a cheaper less labor intensive way of getting the three basic growing nutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium) in the soil. The problem is that eventually most of the trace elements needed for a healthy diet are lost.
