The Taínos, an indigenous people of the Caribbean, engaged in trade primarily through barter, exchanging goods such as cassava, tobacco, pottery, and woven textiles. They utilized canoes for transportation between islands, facilitating trade networks across the Caribbean. The Taínos also traded with other indigenous groups, sharing resources and cultural practices, which enriched their societies and economies. Their trade practices were integral to their communal lifestyle and social structure.
The Tainos and Kalinagos had conflicts due to competition for resources like land and food. However, they also engaged in trade, exchanging goods such as food, tools, and even women, to establish peaceful relationships and access resources not available in their own territories.

The Tainos in the Lesser Antilles maintained contact with those in the Greater Antilles through a network of trade and communication facilitated by canoes. They exchanged goods such as food, pottery, and tools, fostering social and cultural connections. Additionally, their shared language and customs helped strengthen these ties, allowing for the movement of people and ideas between the islands. This interaction was crucial for the Tainos' trade and cultural exchange across the Caribbean.
both tainos and kalinagos were subsistence farmers growing food mainly for their own needs and with a little left over for trade crops were then planted in the ashes after the slash and burn method. Some Tainos used slightly more advanced method.
