new agricultural inventions like the Cotton Gin
The cotton gin made short-staple cotton profitable to process, triggering a huge expansion of cotton cultivation and exports between 1800 and 1840 (and the related growth in the Deep South and slavery). The Grange is from the post‑Civil War era, and tariffs or laissez‑faire policies don’t explain the rapid cotton boom as directly.
