Noting that the price of the pesticides and insecticides , a chief element in the cost structure of a farmer, have increased and will continue to do so, the farming community was not very hopeful about their profits for the next quarter.

A. have increased and will continue to do so, the farming community was not very hopeful about their - the price is singular noun

B. will continue to increase, the farming community was not very hopeful about their - "their" refers farm community which is singular

C. have increased and will continue to do so, the farming community was not very hopeful about the - the price is singular noun


D. will continue to increase, the farming community was not very hopeful about the - Correct

E. has increased and will continue to do so, the farming community was not very hopeful about their - "their" refers farm community which is singular; IMO "has increased and will continue to do so" is too long, it can be shortly referred.
