In 3–5 sentences, explain how developments both outside of Texas and inside the state encouraged Texas farmers to rapidly increase the amount of cotton that they grew from 1860 to 1900.
There were several developments both outside of Texas and inside the state that encouraged Texas farmers to rapidly increase cotton production from 1860 to 1900. Firstly, advancements in technology, such as the introduction of new farming machinery like the cotton gin, made cotton cultivation more efficient and profitable. Secondly, the end of the Civil War and the abolition of slavery opened up new labor opportunities for farmers, leading to an increase in cotton production. Additionally, the growing demand for cotton in industrialized nations, particularly in Europe, created a lucrative market for Texas cotton, further incentivizing farmers to increase production.
