In the 1690s, rice emerged as a major cash crop in South Carolina, significantly contributing to the colony's economy. The region's coastal wetlands provided an ideal environment for rice cultivation. In contrast, Georgia, founded later in 1733, initially focused on other crops like silk and indigo, with rice becoming less dominant in its agricultural landscape during that period. This difference in cash crop focus was influenced by variations in climate, soil, and agricultural practices between the two colonies.

In agriculture, a cash crop is a crop which is grown for money.The term is used to differentiate from subsistence crops, which are those fed to the producer's own livestock or grown as food for the producer's family. In earlier times cash crops were usually only a small (but vital) part of a farm's total yield, while today, especially in the developed countries, almost all crops are mainly grown for cash. In non-developed nations, cash crops are usually crops which attract demand in more developed nations, and hence have some export value.
