Detailed Solution

Indigo was seen as a competition by the planters of woad. Only a small amount of Indian indigo made it to the European market, which was expensive. European cloth manufacturers had to rely on another plant known as woad to produce violet and blue dyes. Woad was easily available in Europe because it is a temperate zone plant. It was grown in northern Italy, southern France, parts of Germany, and the United Kingdom. Worried about indigo competition, European woad producers pressured their governments to prohibit indigo imports. Thus, the people who grew up considered indigo competition for their income.
