Today, Alabama plantations dot the landscape. Although a number of them are of historical value and are no longer in use, there are still many plantations that are functioning and have agricultural yield. Despite being renowned as the Cotton State, Alabama produces a good amount of soy beans, peanuts, sorghum, grains, peaches, corn, and other vegetables in addition to cotton. With an environment and landscape that is conducive to agricultural success, Alabama is one of the nation’s top ten producers of cotton.
The fertile earth of Alabama is what brought settlers to this land and what made them stay back in the 1820s. Alabama plantations sprung up throughout Alabama’s Black Belt region, so-called because of the dark, black topsoil that was perfect for planting. Soon, West Alabama Real Estate was looked upon as the new frontier. The earth was tilled and cotton plantations drove the economy.
Visiting Alabama plantations, particularly those with an interesting history, gives onlookers a glimpse of how times have changed since the early nineteenth century as well as the difficulties that were endured to make the plantations fruitful.
West Alabama Farm Land is an excellent choice for those looking to invest. Its earth is as fertile as it ever was and has proven its worth by producing an immense amount of crops every year.
