Getting rid of GMO's would be a start! Take Heinz Ketchup with their fake tomato ketchup off our shelves. MacDonald's needs to go too with all their mutating lard filled nasties that increases the belt sizes in its wake. Agriculture needs to be streamlined. We have land and good working people. There is no need to have a chicken from USA or Brazil, no offense to these countries, when there are plenty of chickens in Russia to be placed on the dinner table. Everything just needs modernization from infrastructure, transport, and the agriculture business as a whole. They shouldn't cut corners like sell milk for money then play games like dropping 1 liter to 900 ml all just to cheat the consumer out of some extra money. I believe we as Russians can do better and be a leading producer in agriculture. The food from my summer home is the most tasty and all produce should match its quality and freshness so all may enjoy. Set Goals and work towards achieving them.
