What was the relation of crops like sugar coffee indigo and tobacco with slave trade?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: They were produced on plantations through slave labour

Cash crops such as sugar, coffee, indigo and tobacco were grown on large plantations in the Americas and the Caribbean. These plantations needed intensive labour, which was forcibly supplied by enslaved Africans; thus, plantation profits supported the slave trade. The other options are incorrect because these crops were neither factory products nor weapons, and they were not feudal taxes. Exam tip: link the slave trade with plantation agriculture and cash crops.
