Best Answer

Tobacco, indigo, hemp and rice production all began in earnest after subsistence farming could feed the earliest colonists and adequate land had been cleared of timber and shrubs to allow for sustainable, profitable agriculture. The sea provided sustenance while orchards and vinyards were put into place, fenced and protected. Grazng areas and grain fields had to be established to insure a certain future and a stable economy because after all, what civiliation can long survive on Blue Crab and Chesapeake Bay oysters without a taste of roast beef, rich cream and a dollop of butter.
