After the Civil War, many small farms consolidated into larger plantations due to economic pressures and the need for greater efficiency. The abolition of slavery disrupted labor systems, and former enslaved people often lacked the resources to sustain independent farms. Additionally, the rise of cash crops and the demand for production led farmers to pool resources to compete in a changing agricultural market. This trend was further fueled by the availability of land and financing options that favored larger-scale operations.
