farmers will ignore the safety limits of pesticides to harvest the crops

always mean fresh! In season vegetables are cheaper and the nutrition value are
also higher, instead out of season vegetables aren’t

planting. Therefore, they need a huge amount of pesticides, chemical fertiliser
and even ripening agent to grow.

vegetables:
So called continuity harvest vegetables are from
the same stem, the presence of non harvest seeds from opened flower and ripe
seeds. Long beans, peas, four seasons beans and cucumber and others are this
type of vegetables. They are harvest when ripe but most of the time are being
sprayed with pesticides and even will happen immediate harvest after spraying
pesticides situation, thats why they contain high risk of health problems.
