The Dutch soon began to realize how much they would profit off of agriculture, this then led to the developments of plantations and agricultural labor, which required more slaves to work them. However, as these jobs were very difficult for them this was one of the main causes of the decline of the slave population during the 17th century. ]]> 2020-10-06 00:59:04 UTC https://padlet.com/driggsbee01_2/3zp29tbricysfrya/wish/805155681 driggsbee01_2 https://padlet.com/driggsbee01_2/3zp29tbricysfrya/wish/805201222 1625
