Start the planAt HappyDay farms, seasonal staff is employed to pick apples during the harvest season each year. This staff is trained to identify and select only high quality apples, table-worthy apples. As part of this process, apples that have been visibly damaged by insects or disease are left to rot in the fields. The farmer who owns the property and sells the fruit is, therefore, less well informed about potential problems with his crops, such as insect infestations, than are the pickers themselves.
The conclusion drawn above is based on the assumption that
(A) the pickers are more qualified to assess the quality of the fruit sold by the farmer than is the farmer.
(B) during a complete year, the farmer spends more time in the field than any single seasonal picker.
(C) quality control is more important for members of the highest group in a hierarchy than members of the lowest group to ensure.
(D) the farmer obtains all of his information about problems with fruit quality from no source other than the pickers.
(E) the farmer, concerned with maximizing profits from sales, would want fewer apples left to rot in the field.
