Eli Whitney's first attempt at the cotton gin occurred in 1793. He developed the device while working in Georgia, aiming to reduce the labor needed to separate cotton fibers from seeds. This invention significantly increased cotton production efficiency and had a profound impact on the agricultural economy of the South. Whitney patented the cotton gin in 1794.
