Agriculture in the South

Where is the South?

Economy of the South CA$H CROPS!!! The Southern economy revolved around the farming of cash crops Tobacco, Rice, and Indigo However, Cotton was becoming the primary cash crop in the South Very profitable

Why Cash Crops? Why Cotton? The South’s geography supported farming Warm Climate Great, rich soil New inventions Cotton Gin: Invented by Eli Whitney. Made producing cotton much easier and faster. (3,000 bales a year to 300,000 bales a year) Increased cotton production Access to Slave labor Cotton gin rose demand for slaves

Discussion What allows the South to excel in growing cash crops? How does the cotton gin, which makes it easier to clean cotton, actually lead to more slavery? What problems do you predict will come from increased demand for slavery?

Slavery Slave labor was used to farm cash crops Very hard and intense work Southern Plantation owners relied on slaves to farm hundreds of acres of cotton Slave trade ended in 1808, no more slaves from Africa All slaves needed to be born in America

Southern Society Owning land and slaves was a sign of success in the South Few Southerners actually owned slaves Roughly, only 15% of Southerners owned slaves In many states, slaves outnumbered free whites Slave codes: rules set up to prevent slave uprisings Many poor whites desired to own slaves so they would be considered successful

Slave Codes of South Carolina 1. Slaves were forbidden to leave the owner's property unless they obtained permission or were accompanied by a white person. 2. Any slave attempting to run away and leave the state received the death penalty. 3. Any slave who evaded capture for 20 days or more was to be publicly whipped for the first offense; branded with the letter R on the right cheek for the second offense; lose one ear if absent for 30 days for the third offense; and castrated for the fourth offense.

Life in the South Your character (from yesterday) has now decided to travel and make their way through the South. As you write today’s diary entry, please keep in mind the information discussed today and be sure to include the answers to the following questions: 1.How have cash crops impacted the South’s economy? 2.How has the cotton gin changed the South? 3.What is southern society like? 4.How are slaves treated? How does this compare to factory workers in the North?

Reflection Considering only a few southerners own slave, how was slavery still able to dominate the South?
