Answer:

The Columbian Exchange introduced exotic crops like corn ,white potatoes, sweet potatoes ,beans,tomatoes, peanuts and blueberries to Europe. Non-native grains like wheat,barley and rice became commonplace on American soil and increased the variety of crops that could be stored through the winter.
