Best Answer

In American history, it is a new product that overshadowed all else (Tobacco, sugar, rice, long-staple cotton) economies when the all else economies decline around 1820's. A heartier and coarser strain of cotton that could grow successfully in a variety of climates and soils, short-staple cotton was harder to process than long-staple variety because its seeds were diff. to remove from the fiber.
