Which kinds of plantations were grown by clearing forests in the colonial period?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Tea coffee and rubber

The direct answer is A: tea, coffee and rubber. Colonial plantations were commercial estates designed to produce crops for markets and export. The reasoning is: rulers and companies wanted profitable plantation products; forests were cleared to create large, managed estates; tea, coffee and rubber were important examples; thus natural forest area declined. Option A is correct because all three are well-known plantation crops associated with colonial forest clearing. Option B is wrong because wheat is a food grain and is not the standard group intended here. Option C is wrong for the same reason: millet is a food grain, not the characteristic plantation trio. Option D, mustard, is also an ordinary oilseed crop and is not the expected answer. Exam cue: colonial plantations commonly bring tea, coffee and rubber to mind.
