Answer:

Maze, cassava, guinea corn, yam, beans, millet, and rice

Step-by-step explanation:

Nigeria has 70.8 million hectares of agriculture land area with maize, cassava, guinea corn, yam beans, millet and rice being the major crops.

Cassava, yam, cocoyam and maize are the major staple crops in the humid parts of the country, whereas maize, sorghum, millet, cowpea and groundnut are the major staple crops in the sub-humid and semi-arid parts. The major cash crops include cocoa, oil palm, cotton, groundnuts, ginger and sesame.

Apart from patroleum, Nigeria's natural resources also include natural gas, tin, iron ore, coal, limestone, niobium, lead, zinc and arable land.
