Answer 1

The two reasons the Middle Colonies were more favorable to farmers than the New England Colonies are:

1. The growing season was longer.
2. The soil was more fertile.

These factors contributed to more productive farming in the Middle Colonies compared to the harsher climate and poorer soil conditions found in New England.
