A, Slaves provided much of the labor on plantations that grew cash crops would be the answer I would go with. Most slaves worked in crop fields, and iron working didn't become prominent in the US until the industrial revolution about 10 years after the Civil War. I cannot say I'm 100% certain, but the others to me don't seem to make sense when looking at the situation.
