Question

Use the map of Colonial Resources on page 29 to answer the following question. If you were a farmer in colonial times and you grew rice and indigo, you most likely lived in
A.
Massachusetts (MA)

B.
New Jersey (NJ)

C.
Pennsylvania (PA)

D.
South Carolina (SC)

Answer 1

D. South Carolina

Tobacco (a popular crop in the colonies) could not grow well in SC due to its wet soil and tropical climate. Rice and indigo are both crops that thrive in this wet, hot environment. Farmers in SC would sometimes grow rice for one part of the year, and then indigo for the rest. 

Answer 2

D.  South Carolina.  I won't bother explaining because someone else already did.
