"negroes, anckle and even mid-leg deep in water which floats an ouzy mud, and exposed all the while to a burning sun which makes the very air they breathe hotter than the human blood;
these poor wretches are then in a furness of stinking putrid effluvia: a more horrible employment
can hardly be imagined."
9.Which type of plantation work is most likely described in the above passage?

The passage describes work on the rice plantations

Explanation:

Rice had a particular way of growing and harvesting. Plantations of rice should be flooded and kept underwater for around two months, usually in June or July. It requires constant refreshing of the water and weeding of the plants during this time, which was considered to be one of the most unhealthy occupations on the southern plantations. Harvest time usually came at times of great heaths, and those who work at the plantations – in this case, slaves – have to work during the warm day in the flooded fields.

The work on rice plantations was rather deadly and the mortality of the slaves who had to work at these places was high. It is recorded that, at some plantations, more than half of the poor people who worked in the rice field would die.

All of the mentioned conditions and how rice is planted and harvested are the reason we can conclude that the passage talks about slaves forced to work in the rice plantations of the South.
