GWD7-Q37:   explanation
Escalating worldwide demand for corn has led to a sharp increase in the market price of corn, and corn prices are likely to remain high.  Corn is extensive used as feed for livestock, and because profit margins are tight in the livestock business, many farmers are expected to leave the business.  With fewer suppliers, meat prices will surely rise.  Nonetheless, observers expect an immediate short-term decrease in meat prices.
Which of the following, if true, most helps to justify the observers’ expectation?
A. The increase in corn prices is due more to a decline in the supply of corn than to a growth in demand for it.
B. Generally, farmers who are squeezed out of the livestock business send their livestock to market much earlier than they otherwise would.
C. Some people who ate meat regularly in the past are converting to diets that include little or no meat.
D. As meat prices rise, the number of livestock producers is likely to rise again.
E. Livestock producers who stay in the business will start using feed other than corn more extensively than they did in the past.

MM应该是没看明白问题，问的是：哪条信息可以支持观察者的期望（即近期会发生肉价大跌的情况）？B很好的解释了这一点：因为谷价大涨，导致养猪户无法承受而纷纷提前杀掉养的猪卖肉，导致市场上肉供应量大增，进而导致肉价下跌。

With fewer suppliers，指的是种菜的农民而不是卖肉的？。。。
send their livestock to market  是指把牲畜给宰了的意思？

With fewer suppliers这句话的suppliers里指的确实是养猪的，不过这句是在nontheless这个引出需要证明论点的转折词之前，表一般规律。

对的，就是卖肉。
