A lot of monoculture farming depletes micro nutrients, and where they lean into macro (NPK) fertilisers they lose chemical uptake pathways from interactions in healthier soil- half the stuff is grown hydroponically for the European market, especially out of season. Then they pick everything early and selectively breed for shelflife and size etc, almost never for nutrients. It's a slow race to the bottom. Grow your own heritage varieties where you can.
