Why did plantation owners begin to import African slaves to work their farms? They believed Africans would be more loyal to them because they were from another continent. They could get more slaves from Africa for less money than they were currently paying. They realized that people from Africa were more resistant to disease than Native Americans were. They feared attacks from Native American slaves who were skilled warriors.
