Complete answer:
Coffee, rubber, tea : Laterite soils are very suitable for tea, espresso and cashew cultivation. Laterite soils lack fertility due to intensive leaching. When manured and irrigated, some Laterite are fantastic for developing the plantation floras like tea, coffee, rubber, cinchona, coconut, areca nut, etc.

 Wheat ,rice ,rubber:Rice grows on splendid below soft, puddled and water-saturated soil conditions, whole wheat requires a well-pulverized soil having the high quality tilth with a ideal balance of moisture, air and thermal regime.Rubber is grown in the literate or loamy soil, primarily in the slope and undulated land or else barely high flat land, the place, there is no opportunity of the water stagnation.

 Jute, maize ,and Millets ;It is grown on 3.6% of the total sown location in the country.
