Some plantation managers plan to process their surplus oil into fuel for dieselengines used on their plantations. However, this is unlikely to be a cost-effective use for thesurplus, since processing palm oil into a gallon of diesel fuel costs more than the averageretail price for a gallon of ordinary diesel fuel in Yaveria
Which of the following, if true, provides the strongest defense of the plantation managers' planagainst the criticism?
(A) The average annual fuel cost in Yaveria of running a diesel engine is far lower than thecorresponding cost for a gasoline engine.
(B) Due to declining international demand for palm oil, the price that unprocessed palm oil canbring on the export market is expected to fall drastically over the next few years.
(C) Processed palm oil can be mixed with ordinary diesel fuel for use in diesel engines.
(D) Most plantations are in remote areas where the coat of bringing in supplie s is much higher than in the rest of the country.
(E) On most plantations, diesel engines are used not only in trucks but also in generators thatsupply electricity to the plantations.
