Of the plants, the most important is tobacco, of which the state is the largest producer in the United States. Of the industries of greatest importance is the textile industry, which is one of the pillars of the US economy, although many jobs have been lost here in the past two decades due to intense pressure from low-cost manufacturing in Latin America and China.
