How did the invention of the cotton gin benefit southern planters How did it benefit northern textile manufacturers?

Answer 1

The cotton gin removed seeds from the cotton.

The invention of the cotton gin caused massive growth of the production of cotton in the United States, concentrated mostly in the South. Cotton production expanded from 750,000 bales in 1830 to 2.85 million bales in 1850. As a result, the South became even more dependent on plantations and slavery, making plantation agriculture the largest sector of the Southern economy. In addition to the increase in cotton production, the number of slaves rose as well, from around 700,000, before Eli Whitney's patent, to around 3.2 million in 185. By 1860 the United States' South was providing eighty percent of Great Britain's cotton and also providing two-thirds of the world's supply of cotton.

Cotton had formerly required considerable labor to clean and separate the fibers from the seeds; the cotton gin revolutionized the process. With Eli Whitney's introduction of "teeth" in his cotton gin to comb out the cotton and separate the seeds, cotton became a tremendously profitable business, creating many fortunes in the Antebellum South. New Orleans and Galveston were shipping points that derived substantial economic benefit from cotton raised throughout the South.
