Cash crops, such as cotton and tobacco, often required large-scale farming operations that could be managed more efficiently with mechanization and labor specialization. As these crops became more profitable, many small-scale farmers found it difficult to compete and opted to sell their land. This shift led to urban migration as former farmers sought employment in cities, drawn by the promise of factory jobs and better economic opportunities. Consequently, the demand for cash crops contributed to a decline in traditional farming practices and a rise in urbanization.

As farmers specialized in cash crops for profit, they often found it more lucrative to sell their produce and seek employment in urban areas, where they could earn higher wages. This urban migration was further fueled by the promise of industrial jobs and better living standards, leading to a decline in traditional farming practices. Consequently, many rural communities experienced population decline as residents moved to cities in search of economic opportunities.
