Farmers in the Middle Colonies grew wheat, barley, oats, rye, and corn.

Explanation:

Farmers in the Middle Colonies were the most prosperous of all the other colonies. They grew wheat, barley, oats, rye, and corn. The Middle Colonies were often called the "breadbasket" because they grew so much food. Wheat could be ground to make flour, and both wheat and flour could be sold in other colonies or in Europe, which would cause economic-surplus.
