The value of land in the United States has significantly varied at different times in history. Below, a map of the historical changing value of land from 1860 to 1870s in the United States.
During this time, the U.S. population increased by 26.6% from the 1860 census to the 1870 census!
Data source: Brandon Devlin “The effect of slavery on southern farmland values in the antebellum and postbellum era“
According to the map, the South demonstrated considerable homogeneity in land value gains across specific regions, such as urban areas and river counties, but on average, the largest increases occurred in slave-dense regions, such as the Mississippi Delta and Cotton Belt.

I don’t understand the statement “the largest increases occurred in slave-dense regions, such as the Mississippi Delta and Cotton Belt.” According to your color key the largest percentage increase occurs in the green areas which includes Southern California and the industrial midwest (which includes Chicago as the beef distribution hub of the country, at that time).
