Initially, farms in the South primarily focused on cash crops, with tobacco, rice, and indigo being the most prominent. These crops were labor-intensive and relied heavily on enslaved labor for cultivation and harvesting. The agricultural system was designed to maximize profit, leading to the establishment of large plantations that dominated the Southern economy. Over time, cotton became the dominant crop, especially after the invention of the cotton gin, further entrenching the reliance on slavery in the region.
