However, the loopholes in the document actually freed no slaves. After the Civil War, the Reconstruction Era began. New laws were passed to give rights to slaves.

That would have slowed down the process of farming, because there were less farmers than slaves. It isn't really too fun to work in the hot sun either. The slaves' black skin did not get burned easily. But the farmers would have to do the work by themselves, and they did not want that.
