Cotton production boomed in the 19th century by:
By 1860s, weavers faced a new problem.
1) They could not get sufficient supply of raw cotton of good quality.
2) When the American CivilWar broke out and Cotton surplus from theUS were cut off, Britain turned to India.

4) Weavers in India were starved of supplies and forced to buy raw cotton at exorbitant prices.
