Rice cultivation required intensive labor and skilled workers, leading plantation owners to rely on enslaved individuals to meet these demands. The profitability of rice as a crop further incentivized slave labor, as owners sought to maximize production at a lower cost. This led to the expansion of slavery in regions where rice was a dominant agricultural product.
Rice farming was labor-intensive and required skilled workers, leading to a high demand for slaves who had the necessary expertise. The profit potential in rice cultivation incentivized planters to invest in acquiring enslaved laborers. Slaves were seen as a cost-effective solution to meet the labor demands of rice production in the southern colonies.
Some southerners supported slavery because it was central to their economy, providing cheap labor for plantations and agriculture. Additionally, there was a belief in white supremacy that justified the enslavement of black people. Social norms and traditions further reinforced the acceptance of slavery in the South.
To me slavery isn't good at all. But the only "good" that comes in slavery is the owner of the slave. They find it amusing to watch them work so hard and get nothing. And for some reason they didn't find anything wrong with abusing them either. There is no good in slavery. Slavery is wrong and abusive. Haven't you ever heard of Abraham Lincoln?
Three typical reasons for becoming a slave historically include being captured in war and enslaved as a prisoner, being born into slavery from slave parents, or being forced into slavery as punishment for a crime or debt.
One reason given for the need of black slave labor in the South was the labor-intensive nature of plantation agriculture, such as cotton and tobacco cultivation, which required large numbers of workers to be profitable. Slavery provided a cheap and abundant source of labor for planters who sought to maximize their profits. Additionally, the institution of slavery was justified by racist ideologies that devalued the humanity of black people and normalized their exploitation.

Economic reason the farmers in the Constitution avoided the slavery question
There was slavery in the north for the same reason there was slavery in the south, that is to work at labourous jobs.
the reason for slavery in the industrial revolution is since the cotton gin was invented, the demand for cotton increased. Slave/Plantation owners needed their slaves to work harder so they could make their profit
The reason there was slavery is there was not a big enonogh family to work on the plantion so there was slaves. To do it for them.
