Since the eighteenth century, the United States has been a leading producer of cotton, usually the second largest.
The major cash crop produced for export in the Nile valley is cotton. Egypt, in particular, has a long history of cultivating cotton and is known for producing high-quality cotton fibers that are used in the textile industry. The fertile soil and climate in the Nile valley provide ideal conditions for cotton farming.
Planters believed cotton would be a profitable cash crop due to its high demand in both domestic and international markets, its ability to be produced in large quantities with the help of slave labor, and its suitability for the climate in the Southern United States. However, they did not consider the long-term environmental degradation and soil depletion caused by monoculture practices, which ultimately undermined the sustainability of cotton cultivation.
Cotton has been 'used' as long as cotton has grown upon the Earth.
It took too long to remove the seeds from the cotton bolls; slaves did it by hand.
Cotton, tobacco, bunch of stuff. Anything that grew in the ground really, as long as it made a profit.
A good climate for cash crops typically includes warm temperatures, ample sunlight, and consistent rainfall or access to irrigation. Most cash crops thrive in tropical or subtropical regions where the growing season is long and temperatures remain above freezing. Additionally, well-drained soil and moderate humidity can enhance crop yield and quality. Specific climate requirements can vary depending on the type of cash crop, such as cotton, coffee, or tobacco.

Here are the lyrics to Cotton Eyed Joe by Rednex: If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eye Joe I'd been married long time ago Where did you come from where did you go Where did you come from Cotton-Eye Joe If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eye Joe I'd been married long time ago Where did you come from where did you go Where did you come from Cotton-Eye Joe If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eye Joe I'd been married long time ago Where did you come from where did you go Where did you come from Cotton-Eye Joe If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eye Joe I'd been married long time ago Where did you come from where did you go Where did you come from Cotton-Eye Joe If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eye Joe I'd been married long time ago Where did you come from where did you go Where did you come from Cotton-Eye Joe If It hadn't Been For Cotton Eyed Joe I'd Been Married a long Time Ago Where did you come from where did you go Where did you come from Cotton-Eye Joe He brought a disaster wherever he went The hearts of the girls were to hell, broken sent. They all ran away so nobody would know and left only men 'cause of Cotton-Eye Joe (Yee-Haw) If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eye Joe I'd been married long time ago Where did you come from where did you go where did you come from Cotton-eye Joe If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eye Joe I'd been married long time ago Where did you come from where did you go Where did you come from Cotton-Eye Joe If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eye Joe I'd been married long time ago Where did you come from where did you go Where did you come from Cotton-Eye Joe He brought disaster wherever he went The hearts of the girls were to hell, broken sent.

Short answer, yes. They are the same thing. Long answer: A raw material is a resource that has not been processed yet. A tree would be a raw material, but the furniture made from it would not.
