Answer:
b. tobacco
Explanation:
At first, the company at Jamestown Colony wanted to develop the local resources, but they failed to find precious metals, so they turned to trade as a way to grow the Colony, since back then it seemed to be the best, or maybe the only, choice.
In 1612, John Rolfe experimented with some seeds of Caribbean species and they not only did well in the Virginian soil, but also became quite easy to sell since the British wanted tobacco, but it was mainly monopolized by the Spanish. Over two years, more than a ton of tobacco was exported to England.
