Plantations began because first of all...People need food...Second, White men who owened a lot of land...THought if they bought slaves it would save them money. Instead of having to hire people to work there land. They could buy slaves...That's why plantations started...

Well, according to a timeline from the Early Modern Era, roughly from 1450-1750. The first people to use plantations were the Portuguese in 1530's. They traveled to Brazil and started their plantations there.
