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.
