Answer 2

Answer:

C. Producing agriculture past the area of the fourth ring would not be profitable.

Explanation:

German economist Johann Heinrich von Thünen claimed that outside the fourth ring lies the wilderness, which is at a considerable distance from the central city for any kind of agricultural production. This is in contrast to the first ring, which is the closest to the city and includes dairy and farming products that must be quickly transported to city markets.
