The scenario that would create a higher demand for Mediterranean figs in China is:
B. A natural disaster reduces the amount of figs produced in the Mediterranean.
If a natural disaster were to significantly reduce the production of figs in the Mediterranean region, there would be a decrease in the available supply of Mediterranean figs for export. This reduction in supply could lead to increased demand in other regions, such as China, as there would be a scarcity of the product in the market. This scarcity could prompt higher demand in China for Mediterranean figs, potentially driving up prices and making them more sought after in that market.
