During the American Colonial and Revolutionary Periods, the economic activity that encouraged slavery in the southernmost American colonies was agriculture. While the North focused on manufacturing and trade, the South depended almost entirely on the growth of crops, including the labor-intensive crop of cotton. Slaves provided Southern growers with large groups of laborers at very low cost.
