Which plantation crops were produced by enslaved workers in colonial Guadeloupe?

In colonial Guadeloupe, enslaved workers were primarily forced to labor on plantations producing sugarcane and coffee.12

The establishment of these plantations began in the 17th century following the arrival of the slave trade in 1644, which institutionalized slavery to support the colony's economic development. The production of sugar, in particular, became a cornerstone of the island's economy, especially after the introduction of sugar refineries in the early 18th century. These commodities were central to the triangular trade system, enriching French planters and merchants before the final abolition of slavery in 1848.12
