The reasoning is weird. I don't quite understand it. Sorry I'm using the Kindle book so I can't copy and paste. Does anyone have an easier explanation?
Thanks

Here is the question written out.
Which of the following logically completes the passage?
Pecan growers get a high price for their crop when pecans are comparatively scarce, but the prices drops sharply when pecans are abundant. Thus, in high yield years, growers often hold back part of their crop in refrigerated warehouses for one or two years, hoping for higher prices in future.
This year's pecan crop was the smallest in five years. It is nonetheless quite possible that a portion of this year's crop will be held back, since _________________.
A) Each of the last two years produced record breaking pecan yields
B) The Quality of this year's pecan crop is no more worse than the quality of the pecan crops of the previous five years
C) pecan prices have not been to sharp fluctuation in recent years
D) For some pecan growers , this year's crop was no smaller than last year's.
E) the practice of holding back part one year's crop had not yet become widespread the last time the pecan crop was as small as it was this year.
