On several Native American reservations, comparisons of buffalo herds versus domesticated cattle herds have shown that the buffalo herds are far superior meat producers. In addition, native tribes use every part of the buffalo as they did before wild buffalo were almost destroyed on this continent. Therefore, domesticated cattle herds should be replaced with buffalo herds as soon as possible.
Each of the following, if true, would weaken the argument EXCEPT:
(A) Only Native American tribes use part of the buffalo other than the meat.
(B) Not everyone likes the taste of buffalo as much as they like the taste of regular beef.
(C) Cattle ranchers may not know how to raise buffalo.
(D) Professional chefs need time to develop meals that include buffalo.
(E) Cattle ranches may not have the type of grazing land required for buffalo.

I was between A and D.... But finally chose D.... Can anyone please explain why D is incorrect? Does preparation time of food have anything to do with the argument.... I thought 'A' is attacking the premise of this argument.....

My reasoning :
It is not preparation time .It is development time .....
the main thing to concentrate is replacing D Cattle H with B H AS SOON AS POSSIBLE ...
D is pointing that Chef need time to develop the dish , so it cant be replaced soon.
People in urban areas will not get beef for some period.
A is kind of restatement of premise with word "only"...Here Replacement will give some extra benefits apart from meat...
