Answer:

Oats, Corn, Cotton, and Sugar.

Step-by-step explanation:

These commercial crops were more known as "Cash Crops" . In order to be considered as a part of this group, a crop need to fulfill several criteria:

- It need to possess lower risk of failure

- It need to be easy to manage and mass produced.

- it provide a high profit margin for the plantation owners. Meaning that they can get the production up and running with low cost but the selling price was really high.
