Answer to Question 1

E

Answer to Question 2

The first is that the varied topography of the region has influenced agricultural practices, with intensive rice cultivation possible in the lowlands and swidden agriculture appropriate for the highlands. A second reason is the introduction of foreign practices, such as plantation agriculture, that diffused through European colonialism.
