In 1790, the United States produced approximately 4 million pounds of cotton. This was a time when cotton was just beginning to gain prominence as a cash crop, particularly in the southern states. The introduction of the cotton gin by Eli Whitney in 1793 would later revolutionize cotton production and significantly increase output in subsequent years.
