    The correct answer is C. For making blue dye

    Explanation:

    Indigo or Indigofera tinctoria is a plant that has been widely used all around the world to make blue dye. This dye is obtained by using the leaves of the plant and it is believed this was first used around 6000 years ago by human tribes, also during Ancient times in civilizations such as Mesopotamia and Egypt indigo was used with the same purpose and later during the Middle Ages the use of Indigo for clothes, objects, paintings, among others became very popular. However, nowadays blue dye derived from indigo has been replaced by artificial dyes. According to this, it can be concluded indigo was a valuable crop used for making blue dye.
