Passage: European agricultural subsidies under the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) have historically favored large-scale industrial farms over smallholders. In recent reforms, the EU introduced eco-schemes that reward farmers for environmentally friendly practices such as crop rotation and organic farming. While these schemes are voluntary, agricultural economists predict that smallholders will adopt them at higher rates than large farms. Question: Which of the following is logically supported by the passage?

Large industrial farms are legally barred from participating in voluntary eco-schemes. The CAP reforms mandate that all farmers adopt organic farming practices by law. Eco-schemes will fully replace traditional agricultural subsidies under the new CAP. Smallholders are expected to participate in eco-schemes more readily than large-scale farms.

Correct Answer:

Smallholders are expected to participate in eco-schemes more readily than large-scale farms.
