The correct answer is: They were small subsistence farms.
To arrive at this answer, we can compare and contrast the farms of the New England colonies and the farms of the Up Country.
The farms of the New England colonies were primarily small subsistence farms. This means that farmers grew crops and raised livestock mainly to sustain their own families and meet their basic needs. They typically cultivated a variety of crops, such as corn, wheat, vegetables, and fruit, and also kept livestock like cattle, pigs, and poultry. These farms were usually small in size and were not intended for large-scale commercial production.
Similarly, the farms of the Up Country, which refers to the inland areas of the Southern colonies, were also small subsistence farms. Farmers in the Up Country cultivated crops and raised livestock to provide for their own families and communities. The focus was on self-sustainability rather than large-scale commercial operations.
Therefore, the similarity between the farms of the New England colonies and the Up Country is that they were both small subsistence farms.
