Irrigation and the cotton gin.
The invention of the cotton gin actually revived a dying slavery demand.
The cotton gin, invented by Eli Whitney in 1793, revolutionized cotton production by significantly increasing the speed at which cotton fibers could be separated from their seeds. This mechanization made it possible to process large quantities of cotton quickly, leading to a dramatic increase in cotton production and profitability. As a result, the demand for cotton soared, fueling the expansion of cotton plantations in the Southern United States and intensifying the reliance on slave labor to meet this demand. Overall, the cotton gin transformed cotton into a dominant cash crop in the American economy.
Cotton was a prized crop in the American colonies and later in the United States. There was a worldwide demand for this crop and it was used to make all types of clothing. The US Southern climate was ideal for growing cotton and much of it was purchased by the Northern industrial US States and in England. The demand seemed to have no limits. When the cotton gin was invented in allowed for an easier way to remove seeds from cotton. More cotton was produced and sold worldwide as its demand seemed never to cease. With that said, cotton became a boom crop because of the demand of it in textile mills in the US and in Europe.
By making it inexpensive to process cotton, it increased the demand for cotton, which increased the demand for slaves to grow cotton.

The Cotton Gin merely raised the demand for cotton as it was a machine that quickly separated the cotton from the seed. But what the Cotton Gin couldn't do was pick the cotton. Paying people to pick the cotton was now even less cost efficient...
The invention of the cotton gin made it easier and faster to process cotton, leading to increased demand for cotton production. This demand resulted in the expansion of cotton plantations, which in turn increased the need for labor, leading to the use of more enslaved people to work on the plantations to meet the growing demand for cotton.
