Best Answer

As the farmlands in the Southern States prospered by growing cotton and tobacco, plantations expanded. There was a world market for these crops and the Northern States also bought cotton for their textile mills.

To continue to grow, more slave labor was required. Thus, slave traders sought new slaves from Africa to meet this demand.
