Answer 1

Answer:

Greater dependence on foreign markets by Africans and Latin americans

Explanation:

Indigo was the solely valued crop in El Salvador prior to the instruction of coffee around 1880s, which surpassed indigo as the leading crop to help the nation to make more progress and develop. Kenya, on the other hand started growing coffees in larger numbers after the introduction of the crop by the British people.

In September, 1962, international coffee agreement was signed by fifty-eight coffee importing and exporting countries. The essence of signing the five year agreement was to stabilize the prices of coffee exports because many African and latin American countries depended on coffee prices to earn much money in foreign markets.
