Sugarcane replaced cotton this statement about early Texas agriculture is false.

Option: B

Step-by-step explanation:

In early Texas agriculture many of the lands were under dry farming system as the lands in the west were dry. Subsistence farming was replaced by commercial farming. Cotton replaced tobacco, rice and indigo etc. Tenant farmers and share croppers replaced plantation farming as who work in the land of others are called tenants.

Sugarcane and cotton both are different cash crop having different utility. So sugarcane can never replaced cotton. Western part of the state Texas always faced tremendous drought that's why farming got affected.
