Answer:

Option (B) is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the government imposes some of the restrictions on the producers of the mustard then this will maintain the price level for the consumers in the economy but at the same time producers wants to decrease the production of mustard and hence, there is a fall in the supply of mustard.

This is because of the less profit that producers obtained from selling the product at a lower prices. Therefore, there is no incentive for the producers to produce more at a lower prices.
