Ways the civil war affected the development of the Louisiana economy?

The civil war damaged Louisiana's economy.

Explanation:

There were a lot of agricultural plantations that operated in Louisiana during the civil wars. Those plantations relied on slave labors. After slavery was abolished at the end of Civil war, Louisiana experience a shortage in labors that led to a decrease in their economic production.

On top of that, Louisiana became the battle grounds for a lot of clashes between the Union and the Confederates. This directly destroyed a lot of lands that they use for their production.
