Based on the passage:
Climate change may actually benefit some plants by lengthening growing seasons and increasing carbon dioxide. Yet other effects of a warmer world, such as more pests, droughts, and flooding, will be less benign. How will the world adapt? Researchers project that by 2050, suitable croplands for four commodities — maize, potatoes, rice and wheat — will shift, in some cases pushing farmers to plant new crops. Some farmlands may benefit from warming, but others won't. Climate alone does not dictate yields; political shifts, global demand, and agricultural practices will influence how farms fare in the future.

Which one of the following is the most logical and rational inference that can be made from the above passage?

Based on the passage:
Climate change may actually benefit some plants by lengthening growing seasons and increasing carbon dioxide.

Which one of the following is the most logical and rational inference that can be made from the above passage?

Accepted Answer

Correct Option: Farmers who modernize their methods and diversify their fields will be in an advantageous position in future. The passage explains that climate change will alter suitable croplands for major commodities by 2050, forcing some farmers to plant new crops. It highlights that warming will benefit some farmlands while hurting others, and that climate alone does not dictate yields—political shifts, global demand, and agricultural practices also play critical roles in how farms fare. From this, it can be logically inferred that farmers who adapt by modernizing their methods and diversifying their fields will navigate these changes successfully and be in an advantageous position. Option B is incorrect because shifting crops does not mean diversity is adversely affected. Option C is speculative and unsupported regarding total area expansion. Option D overstates climate as the *most* important factor while the text balances it with other factors.
