Question
Unusual weather patterns in the northeast have led to reduced harvest of apples at
orchards in that region. In the spring unusually warm weather causes trees to bloom
early. After the bloom a late spring freeze can ruin the crop entirely! In response,
farmers are using heaters in the orchard and switching to more tolerant crops like
raspberries. When setting up a Market to model this change:
There will be a decrease in supply of apples. This will lead to a shortage, prices
will increase, quantity demanded will fall, and quantity supplied will rise.
There will be a increase in demand for apples. This will lead to a shortage, prices
will increase, quantity demanded will fall, and quantity supplied will rise.
There will be a increase in supply of apples. This will lead to a surplus, prices will
fall, quantity demanded will rise, and quantity supplied will fall.
There will be no change in the market for apples since the heaters will solve the
problem.
