Most countries of the world will likely soon have to start importing food grains. Not only are these countries quite densely populated but they have also been experiencing population growth at exponential rates. However, Satsuma and Valenca are two such countries that have decided against importing food grains and instead plan to increase their production of food grains by instituting cutting-edge and intensive methods of farming.

Which of the following statements provides the best support for the success of Satsuma's and Valenca's plan?

A
Countries that maximize food production while utilizing the minimum possible amount of water have a higher GDP as the water conserved could be utilized for increasing output from other sectors.

B
Most countries facing the problem of population explosion are yet to institute measures for population control.

C
Countries that are not facing the problem of population explosion are likely to export their surplus grain production to countries that are likely to face shortage of food grains.

D
Intensive methods of farming typically increase the food grain production significantly, and therefore, decrease the price of food grains, making food grains more available to an average person.

E
The agricultural sectors in Satsuma and Valenca have sustained predominantly on traditional modes of agriculture, the effectiveness of which has been consistently superceded by that of new intensive methods of farming

option A:- Incorrect
Higher GPD and water has nothing to do with the subject matter in the above statement, this is totally out of context

option B:- Incorrect
Population explosion and population control are not both the bone of contention here, but rather between the two countries Satuma and Valenca and how they are able to use cutting edge technologies to provide food grains for her citizens, hereby preventing import of food grains.

option C:- Incorrect
Population explosion is not to be considered and it is not a bottom base of discussion. The question says which statement provides best support for the success of Satuma and valenca.

option D:- correct
The option clearly and vividly gives reasons on how Satuma and valenca will do well in food grain thereby preventing importing the food grain.

option E:- Incorrect
Agricultural methods/services were not mentioned and are not what the main question is all about. It is good to tell this option is irrelevant and out of context
