They were agricultural farms which used slave labor to grow and harvest very large crops. In Haiti, the first plantations grew sugar cane, and were built by the French in the 17th and 18th centuries. In the southern US colonies, South Carolina used slaves (as in French Louisiana) for a number of crops before cotton became a primary crop in the 1790's. Georgia had banned slavery in 1735, only to legalize it again in 1751 due to shortages of labor.
