Why did the number of enslaved africans in southern colonies increase dramatically?

It didn't matter where the slaves came from. The tribal leaders in Africa just had many to sell for one reason or another. The demand came from areas when cheap labor was needed. In the US, it was mostly in the areas growing cotton or sugar cane. Remember this was before many machines were invented. When that happened the demand grew less. If one person could plant and then harvest a large farm alone, what need was there for 20-40 people to do the work.
