"agriculture accounted for almost none of its economic activity."

Although the North was industrializing (about 80% of the nation's factories were there) and more urban than the South, agriculture remained a major part of its economy in 1850 — many people still farmed (commercial grain, dairy, mixed farming), so it was not negligible.
