Solution

The aggregate demand curve does not shift and the short-run aggregate supply curve shifts left.

Here's why:

  1. A price increase in imported fertilizers increases the cost of production for the agricultural sector. This leads to a decrease in short-run aggregate supply, so the short-run aggregate supply curve shifts to the left in the short run.

  2. The aggregate demand curve does not shift because the price increase in imported fertilizers does not directly affect the overall demand for goods and services in the economy.

  3. Therefore, the correct answer is: the aggregate demand curve does not shift and the short-run aggregate supply curve shifts left.
