A typical tobacco plantation would use 100 slaves to work the fields. The south had over 2,320,000 slaves that was over 47 percent of its total population.
Because of the vast amount that needed to be done around the plantations, households, roman style villas, and because owning slaves was a sign of wealth

Slaves have all types of jobs depending on the society. When slavery existed in the United States, the slave trade depleted the farms of Africa. People in the United States wanted slaves who already knew how to farm. Where large plantations existed, the large plantations were self supporting units. The plantations manufactured everything they needed. The slaves learned to do everything that would be done in a small village. You may have heard of Gullah culture in South Carolina. The Gullahs were slaves. Their owners would leave them alone a large part of the year visiting the plantations when the cold weather had killed the mosquitoes. At all other times, The Gullah did all of the jobs necessary to keep a plantation running. They took care of the animals. They grew the food they needed to eat. They ran the blacksmith shop. Meanwhile, the planters went to their cottages in Newport, Rhode Island.

Other slaves worked in the house as servants, or were used to do other jobs around the plantation. e class. Slaves are punished for not obeying their master's instructions, working too slowly, or attempting to leave. Tobacco, cotton and sugar were grown on major farms called plantations. As European orders for these crops amplified, the plantations grew larger and needed more slaves to harvest the crops. Free Time Most slaves had to work from sunrise to sunset. Some owners made their slaves work every day, others allowed slaves one day a month off and some allowed their slaves to have Sundays as a rest-day. Slaves would spend their free time mending their huts, making pots and pans and relaxing. Some plantation owners allowed their slaves a small plot of land to grow things to supplement their diet. Work Done By Slaves Slaves had no say in what task they were required to do and no control over the length of their working day which was usually from sunup in the morning to sunset in the evening ("can see to can't see" in the slaves language)
The south's economy would plummet. Slave labor was the only means for Southerners to make money. If slaves were taken away from cotton gin factories and large plantations, there would not be any work being done. Therefore, no slaves = no money. no money=bad economy.
