Explanation:

In the mid-eighteenth century, New England was characterized by small family farms and the Puritans were beginning mercantile development. These farms largely produced food for local consumption. In the Middle Colonies (Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, and Delaware) they produced largely grains like wheat and corn. The middle colonies were fertile while New England was very rocky, and land was acquired more easily in the Middle Colonies than in New England or in the plantation South. The Southern Colonies (Georgia, the Carolinas, Virginia, and Maryland) were dependent on slave labor and large plantations that produced cash crops like cotton and tobacco.
