Correct Answer: production


Solution : The correct option is the first option.

Explanation:
Production refers to the act or process of manufacturing or creating goods or items. In the context of the sentence, the forecast is for orange prices to grow despite an expected increase in global production. This indicates that despite an increase in the production of oranges, prices are still anticipated to rise.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • An organisation refers to a group or a structured entity formed for a particular purpose.
  • Abduction refers to the act of taking someone away illegally by force or deception.
  • Assumption refers to taking something for granted or accepting it as true without proof.

Therefore, the complete sentence would be: "This year, orange prices are forecast to grow, despite an expected increase in global production."
