They were fucking garbage at picking cotton and slave estates often did worse than tennant farming estates.
The only thing that made it worthwhile was that they were dirty cheap and no one gave a damn what you did with them.
It wouldn't have been economical without conscripting whites for security. Slavery needs subsidy.
