Answer:

Plantation owners.

Step-by-step explanation:

Head-right is legal grant of land to settlers. Plantation owners benefited when they paid for the transportation of imported enslaved people. Because headrights were granted to those who payed to import enslaved people. That's why they were an important part for the colonies stabilisation.
