What are the main agricultural products and minerals imported from Europe? Why?

There are crude oil, cocoa, bananas, natural rubber, sugar, tobacco, coffee and other agricultural products and minerals.

Reason: Due to the high latitude and insufficient natural heat in European countries, many tropical and subtropical crops can't grow, but people can't live without these necessities, so they rely heavily on imports.

In addition, the common problems in European countries are small land area and insufficient cultivated land area. Moreover, the economy here is developed, and the land rent must be very expensive, so it is impossible to carry out large-scale agricultural production.

In addition, Europe was the first place to implement and complete the industrial revolution. Most countries are traditional industrial countries, which attach importance to industrial development and have a low position in agriculture. However, a large number of raw materials needed for industrial production must rely on imports.
