The Taíno were an indigenous people of the Caribbean who primarily engaged in agriculture, cultivating crops like cassava, maize, sweet potatoes, and tobacco. They practiced a form of subsistence farming, supplemented by fishing and hunting. Their social structure included communal land ownership, and they utilized tools made from stone, wood, and bone for farming and crafting. The Taíno also engaged in trade with neighboring tribes, exchanging goods and resources.
