The correct answer is D) for making blue dye.

Indigo was a valuable crop used for making blue dye.

In colonial America, specifically in South Carolina, in the 1740s, people started to grow Indigo in their plantations. It was a total success. The Indigo plant was not common in the Americas. So the blue-dye represented an expensive product that just rich families could buy.
