Where did plantations have more slaves in Latin American or in the American South?

Plantations in the American South had a higher concentration of slaves compared to those in Latin America. The American South's economy was heavily reliant on large-scale cotton, tobacco, and sugar plantations, which often required a large enslaved workforce. In contrast, while Latin American countries also utilized slave labor, the scale and intensity of plantation agriculture were generally less concentrated compared to the American South. Additionally, the dynamics of slave labor and plantation systems varied significantly between the two regions.
