Agriculture in the Old South was quite diverse.
In theChesapeake Society, tobacco was one of their best commercial crops.
The Carolina Society was slave-based, and had rice and indigo, and earlier on, hemp.
Although those are some of the more prosperous crops, they also had a lot of corn, as that was part of their primary diet, among other vegetables on a smaller scale.
Planters were not the majority of southerners, but rather Yeoman farmers - those who had smaller farms, perhaps either none or only a few slaves.
