标题: GWD一道题求助

Escalating worldwide demand forcorn has led to a sharp increase in the market

price of corn, and corn pricesare likely to remain high. Corn is extensive used

as feed for livestock, andbecause profit margins are tight in the livestock

business, many farmers areexpected to leave the business. With fewer suppliers,

meat prices will surely rise.Nonetheless, observers expect an immediate

short-term decrease in meatprices.

Which of the following, iftrue, most helps to justify the observers' expectation?

A The increase in corn prices is due more to a declinein the supply of corn than

to a growth in demand for it.

B Generally, farmers who are squeezed out of thelivestock business send their

livestock to market much earlier than they otherwisewould.

C Some people who ate meat regularly in the past areconverting to diets that

include little or no meat.

D As meat prices rise, the number of livestock producersis likely to rise

again.

E Livestock producers who stay in the business willstart using feed other than

corn more extensively than they did in the past.

正确选项是B，但是我当时选了D，感觉就是如果肉价涨了，那么livestock producers也会涨，这样进入这个市场的多了，肉价不就是下跌吗？为什么不能选D，求牛牛解释，谢谢~~
