Colonists established plantations to grow sugar, cotton, vanilla, and other crops introduced to the Americas. Colonists established ranches where they raised livestock brought from Europe. Much of what the colonists grew and raised was exported to Europe. Europeans brought such plants and animals as wheat, citrus fruit, honeybees, horses, and cattle to the Americas. Horses significantly altered the lifestyles of Native Americans on the Great Plains. Horses enabled them to travel faster and over greater distances. This made hunting more effective, as they could follow the roaming bison herds. Agricultural products native to the Americas, such as potatoes, cocoa, corn, tomatoes, and tobacco, were shipped to Europe
