Because mining and refining nickels is costly, researchers have developed an alternative method for extracting nickels using Streptanthus polygaloides, a plant that absorbs and stores nickel from the soil as it grows. The researchers incinerated a crop of Streptanthus they grow in nickel-rich soil. By chemically extracting nickel form the ash, they produced 100 pounds of nickel per acre of land at a total cost per pound slightly above that of current mining.
原文说：是否提取N，价格高不高
Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the conclusion that the use of Streptanthus to extract nickel will be commercially adopted?

A.    The season in which the researchers grew Streptanthus was an unusually favorable one, with the right amount of precipitation to maximize the growth rate of Streptanthus. 说season如何 无关
B.    Because lowering the concentration of nickel in the soil can make land much better for agriculture in general, a plot in which Streptanthus has been grown and harvested can be sold for substantially more than it cost 说N的浓度，S价格和原文由关
C.    More air pollution is generated for each pound of nickel produced by extracting it from Streptanthus than is generated using conventional mining and refining 说AIR POLLUTION无关了
D.    The land on which the researchers planted Streptanthus was unusually free of the various weeds that can compete with Streptanthus for water, nutrients, and sunlight. 说WEEDS和S抢各种资源 无关
E.    It is extremely绝对化 rare for soil to contain higher concentrations of nickel than the concentrations present in the researchers’ experimental plot.
