Farms that specialize in growing a single type of crop for profit are known as monoculture farms. These operations focus on maximizing yields and efficiencies by cultivating one crop, such as corn, soybeans, or rice, over large areas. This specialization can lead to increased profitability but may also pose risks, such as vulnerability to pests, diseases, and market fluctuations. Crop rotation and diversification practices are often recommended to mitigate these risks and promote sustainability.

The rocky soil and shorter growing season meant smaller farms and fewer slaves were used. In the southern colonies, farming was dominated by large plantations growing cash crops like tobacco, rice, and indigo. The fertile soil and longer growing season allowed for larger farms and greater use of slaves.
