The 'small farmer' is singular. So we can cancel out all options which uses 'they' to refer to the farmer. So B,D,E are out. We are left with A & C. (A) planting the same crops as are planted on large farms will lead to economic disaster for the small farmer, who (C) economic disaster will result from planting the same crops as large farms to the small farmer, who C is badly formed. A is the correct answer.

Is this the implied meaning of "as are planted on large farms" in the option A.. Please do explain.. Hi Skamal, Yes sort of. A long wordy version of A would be something like According to Booker T. Whatley's recent analysis, planting the same crops as those which are are planted on large farms will lead to economic disaster for the small farmer, who should plan a succession of high-value crops that will provide a year-round cash flow. Hope that makes sense. James
