 The answer would be C The shift from agriculture to industry resulted in a decrease in food production, which in turn caused widespread famine in China.  

Explanation:   A major goal of the Great Leap Forward was to  increase agricultural production. Private lands  were seized by the government and turned into  collective (communal) farms. Peasants and  wealthy landowners were forced to work on these  farms. Individuals received only meager amounts  of food for their efforts. Many people scavenged  the fields during the day, looking for seeds, frogs,   insects—anything to eat. The result was wide spread famine. This famine was not caused by   weather or natural disaster. This famine was a direct  consequence of political decisions.
