During the past five years, the nation of Andolvia began a massive undertaking: teaching farmers how to successfully grow and harvest peanuts. The government subsidized the building of peanut processing plants, where private businesses are now producing peanut butter and other products of nutritional value. Although the Andolvia government has not completely banned the importation of peanuts, it has placed on the number of peanut products that the nation can import each year, in order to protect Andolvia's young peanut industry.

C) import quotas

Explanation:

Import quotas are a type of trade barrier that is placed to reduce foreign competition from domestic producer. Import quotas along with tariffs (taxes on imports) distort domestic markets because even though the producers of peanuts will benefit, the consumers will suffer due to artificially high prices. Generally the lost consumer surplus outweighs the supplier surplus generated by import quotas or tariffs resulting a net economic loss for the country.

Sadly import quotas and tariffs are popular even in the US, because politicians claim that they are supporting local industries, but at the end the customers end up paying the higher costs.
