Past perfect is right here, because the order of actions matters. C is wrong because it is unclear to what 1880s is related. In D it is clear the 1880 is related to introducing the methods.
In A and alike answers "crops" is not in the right place, "grape, celery, chili pepper, sugar beet and walnut" modifies crops.
So i think D is the answer. What's the OA ?
