When Jamestown was founded did the demand for tobacco in England increase or decrease?
Jamestown was founded in 1607 with 104 men sent to make a profit for the investors who sent them. Tobacco didn't show up until John Rolfe introduced it to the colony in 1610. Without tobacco the colony would have probably failed, but tobacco saved it because demand was so high. Not only was it used as snuff, being smoked, and with pipes but Jamestown used it as currency. It was grown in any space that could be found including the streets.

What crash crop saved Jamestown?
Jamestown was founded in 1607 by the London Company in England and became the first successful English settlement in the New World. In the first years of the settlement, things were difficult for the colonists. However, after a few years tobacco became the cash crop of the area and provided Jamestown with an economic base in which to support themselves.
Which development was a result of tobacco becoming a successful crop in Jamestown?
The cultivation of tobacco increased as the market demand for this new product sky rocketed in Europe. The other result was that new plantations were created at the expense of Native American owned land.
In 1604 where was tobacco grown and why was it being sold in England?
The tobacco variety that Europeans liked was grown in the European colonized Caribbean islands, and after 1604 it was grown in on the American continent (another variety of tobacco was used by Native Americans, but Europeans disliked the flavor.) Tobacco was turned into cigars, snuff, and other products, all of which was in high demand at the time. England was the main buyer of tobacco at that time.

How did John Rolfe affect the colony?
Rolfe reacted to consumer demand by importing seed from the West Indies and cultivating the plant in the Jamestown colony. Those tobacco seeds became the seeds of a huge economic empire. By 1630, over a million and a half pounds of tobacco were being exported from Jamestown every year. The tobacco economy rapidly began to shape the society and development of the colony. Growing tobacco takes its toil on the soil. Because tobacco drained the soil of its nutrients, only about three successful growing seasons could occur on a plot of land. Then the land had to lie fallow for three years before the soil could be used again. This created a huge drive for new farmland.
