    Planters

    1. Had lots of money and slaves and grew cash crops

    2. Products produced cotton

    3. Owned 20 or more slaves

    4. Lived in plantations that could be used to grow cash crops, which was all in the south.

    Yeoman Farmers

    1. Stayed to themselves. Grew livestock and crops that would keep them alive and would sell some of what they produced

    2. Produce food and a little cotton

    3. Owned 1 or 2 slaves

    4. Lived in non slave territory north of the Ohio River, but must of them stayed in the south in the upcountry and the eastern slopes of the Appalachian from the Chesapeake through Georgia and the western slopes of the mountains in Kentucky and Tennessee, the pine covered hill country of northern Mississippi and Alabama.

    The Free African-American farmer

    The African American farmer is a rare breed in the United States. The loss of landownership and farming operations has contributed to the poverty of many rural communities in the South.

    Farming is no longer a toiling-behind-a-mule-and-a-plow venture but rather a technical and managerial occupation-one which, despite many odds, some African-Americans choose.
