Nowadays Vegetable are grown artificially very rare except rural place we have some original ones as mostly are produced artificially by chemicals farmers based on Asia and some countries where there is weather without coldest like snow it easy to produce them and export them during seasonal time to the countries which have cold season especially winter Europe import vegetable from Asian countries which has tropical climate .

Off-season vegetables can impact nutritional value compared to in-season produce in several ways. Generally, vegetables that are out of season might have been harvested early or stored for longer periods before reaching consumers. This extended storage and transportation can lead to a decline in certain nutrients such as vitamins and antioxidants, which are sensitive to light, heat, and air exposure.

In contrast, in-season vegetables are typically harvested at peak ripeness and consumed soon after, maximizing their nutrient content. They are often fresher and have undergone less processing and transportation, which helps preserve their nutritional value. Seasonal vegetables also tend to be more flavorful due to natural growth conditions and have a higher water content, contributing to their overall quality.

Your work is really very interesting and useful .

my sincere congratulations!!

So we can say that vegetables grown artificially with chemicals are common, especially in Asia, where the climate makes it easy to grow and export them during Europe's winter. This means Europe gets fresh veggies from countries with tropical climates. Off-season vegetables often lose nutritional value because they are harvested early and stored for a long time. This can reduce vitamins and antioxidants. On the other hand, in-season vegetables are fresher, more nutritious, and tastier because they are harvested at their peak. For example, fresh spinach can lose up to 90% of its vitamin C within 24 hours of harvest. So, eating seasonal produce is better for nutrition and flavor.

Congratulations Dr Rohit Kumar for your information how do off-season vegetables impact the nutrition
