Answer Details
An increase in supply of agricultural produce can be caused by a variety of factors such as reduced cost of production, favorable weather conditions, and reduced taxation. However, the factor that does not contribute to an increase in supply is consumers buying less products.
When consumers buy less products, it creates a surplus of the unsold produce and reduces demand for it. When demand for a product decreases, the market price for the product decreases as well, which can lead to a reduction in the supply of that product. In this case, the decrease in consumer demand would actually lead to a decrease in the supply of agricultural produce, rather than an increase.
