What main crops were grown in the north and south in 1860?

In 1860, the northern states primarily focused on growing crops such as wheat, corn, and oats, benefiting from a diverse agricultural system and more advanced farming techniques. In contrast, the southern states were heavily reliant on cash crops, with cotton being the dominant crop, along with tobacco, rice, and sugarcane. The agricultural practices in the South were largely dependent on slave labor, which contributed to the economic disparity between the two regions. This divergence in crop production reflected the broader social and economic differences leading up to the Civil War.
