All of the following statements about agriculture in market economic systems are true EXCEPT
A. that it is characterized by specialization, profit, and interdependence.
B. in response to low crop prices and overproduction, it is being replaced by intensive subsistence farming.
C. the crop or livestock mix selected by commercial farmers reflects assessment of production and marketing costs and market demands and prices.
D. it involves intensive land use near markets and extensive land use at more distant locations.

A market economic system is one in which laws of demand and supply determine the production of goods and services. Agriculture in market economic systems is not being replaced by subsistence farming because subsistence farming is low scale farming that meets the needs of a family and as such is not affected by any laws of demand and supply as in commercial farming.
