The low value of child labor in agriculture may help explain why children are the source of important labor for many early industrial enterprises. In 1820, children under the age of 15 occupied 23% of the industrialized manufacturing workforce in the northeastern region. They are common in textile products in particular, accounting for 50% of the total number of cotton factory employees, 16 or more employees, 41% wool factory workers and 24% paper mills. However, Goldin and Sokoloff (1982) concluded that the proportion of child labor in industrial employment began to decline as early as 1840. Many textile manufacturers hire the entire family and their share is declining, but until the early 20th century, child labor remains a key input in this industry.
