Answer:

Agriculture and Shipbuilding

Step-by-step explanation:

The New England Colonies included Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, and Connecticut. Since these colonies were near t the sea shore therefore they mostly took shipping and fishing as their boomed industries. Some more major industries in the New England Colonies included lumber, whaling, shipbuilding, fishing, livestock, textiles, and some agriculture.
