Choices A, B, and C can be faulted for putting a verb phrase, basing…, where a noun phrase is needed to continue the list of parallel elements that begins with the high cost of land, the pressure of housing… Also, the imported produce in B suggests that the system is based on the produce itself rather than on the practice of importing produce. In C, the import of produce is unidiomatic.
D, the best choice, presents a noun phrase (… a marketing and distribution system ) that completes the list of parallel elements and refers to the act of importing produce. E also supplies the noun phrase but states illogically that the system imports produce as its base. The question is moderately easy.

lz答案看错啦吧。。。
