The rich soil near Pompeii, primarily due to volcanic ash from Mount Vesuvius, was highly fertile and conducive to agriculture. The two major crops grown in the area were grapes, used for wine production, and wheat, which was a staple food source. These crops contributed significantly to the local economy and diet of Pompeii's inhabitants.
