The correct answer is C) tobacco.

This list represents the major crops grown in colonial Georgia. The crop that should correctly be placed in the blank space is tobacco.

Agriculture was very important in colonial Georgia. The soil of the territory of Georgia was fertile and the weather conditions favored farmers to grow good cash crops that were exported to Europe. Farmers successfully grew Indigo, tobacco, and Rice.

A Board of Trustees received the charter by King George II in 1732 to found the Georgia colony. By 1752, Georgia is a royal colony. Two years later, John Reynolds becomes the first royal governor of Georgia.
