Which of the following was not a factor in making cotton a risky crop to grow? a)availability of railroads to transport crops b)unpredictable prices c)drought d)insect infestation

A)availability of railroads to transport crops

Availability of railroads to transport crops was not a factor in making cotton a risky crop to grow, even if such availability makes easier to gain from the crops, the cotton was a risky crop because it is very delicate and environmental factors such as drought or insect infestation could easily kill the plant, making the investment worthless.
