Cash crops grown on plantation
Crops grown on plantations include cotton, coffee, tobacco, sugar cane, sisal, and various oil seeds and rubber trees.
Cash crops needed a lot of people to work them and slavery was cheap.
The South was a cash crop economy of cotton and tobacco.
Because it was a cash crop that was first grown and sent to England by John Rolfe. This was grown on most plantations in Jamestown as well as indigo.
Tobacco and corn were the most important cash crops, although beans and squash were also grown.
Sugar is one of the important cash crops in the Caribbean. Citrus crops including grapefruits and oranges as well as bananas are grown in the Caribbean.
Large cash crops such as cotton had to be grown on huge plots of land, hence, plantations. Small plots in wooded or hilly areas did not require slaves on a massive scale.
