plantations
The US textile industry was built around the growing of cotton. Some large cotton farms were known as plantations.
Cotton is not manufactured, it's grown. In fields. On farms.
well they are grown in large corporate farms and for their own family in small family farms
The plant indigo the people of the southern colonies used is grown on large farms.
Cotton is grown on bushes on cotton farms, by farmers who plant the seeds, nurture the plants, harvest the cotton and sell it to cotton processing facilities. Given that it is an annual plant, it is renewed annually.
Plantations.
Prior to the Civil War, most northern farms were relatively small and produced grain crops such as wheat and barley. In contrast, there were many more large farms in the south which produced crops such as tobacco, rice and primarily cotton.
Cotton farms.
Yeah cotton farms in the south.
After the cotton gin was invented (which removed seeds from cotton flowers), more and more cotton was grown, and more and more slaves were needed to harvest the cotton, and make money for the people who ran the farms where cotton was grown.
Fields, storage, where it is harvested
Cotton requires hot weather and lots water. The south has that and the north is too cold, too rocky, bad soil for cotton, smaller farms, and not enough water.
