Which crops did Hidalgo wanted to grow but was discouraged or prohibited?

Maize and Beans
Wheat and Barley
Tomatoes and Potatoes
Olives and Grapes

Answer

The answer to the question is olives and grapes. Hidalgo wanted to grow these crops because they were valuable commodities that could be used to trade with other countries. However, the Spanish government discouraged or prohibited the growth of these crops because they did not want the colonies to become too independent.
