France has a comparative advantage over England in the production of beef

Explanation:

It is said that a country has a comparative advantage over another in the production of a good / service when it can produce the good by investing a smaller amount of resources. In this case, France produces beef at a lower cost than England (due to factors such as infrastructure, livestock costs and other important variables).
