D) Palm oil, of course! Everyone knows about the controversy surrounding palm oil and its impact on the environment. I'm surprised this is even a question.

Hmm, I was considering B) Crude oil, but that doesn't seem quite right. The question is specifically about an oil crop, not a fossil fuel.

I think the answer is D) Palm oil. The clearing of rainforests in Indonesia is mainly for the production of palm oil, which has become a widely used oil crop.
