D Correct answer
Explanation

The correct answer is 'are being subsidized'. The sentence describes something happening now (present continuous) in the passive voice. 'Several crops are being subsidized by the government' shows current action. The other options are grammatically incorrect: 'will have been subsidizing' is future perfect active, 'being subsidized' lacks the auxiliary verb, and 'are subsidizing' is active voice when we need passive.
