The lives of plantation belt yeomen and upcountry yeomen diverged due to differences in economic opportunities and lifestyles. Plantation belt yeomen were typically wealthier and relied on cash crops like cotton, while upcountry yeomen focused on subsistence farming and lived in more isolated, rugged areas. Additionally, the plantation system in the South created a more stratified society that impacted opportunities for social mobility.
The crop most associated with the Upcountry following the American Revolution was cotton. Its cultivation became increasingly prominent due to the demand for cotton textiles, leading to a significant economic shift in the region. The introduction of the cotton gin in the late 18th century further enhanced cotton production, solidifying its status as a key crop for the Upcountry farmers. This shift also contributed to the expansion of slavery in the area, as labor was needed for the labor-intensive crop.
