The headright system encouraged the growth of plantations in virginia by establishing a race-based slave system that provided plantation labor. giving land to colonists who paid for servants or enslaved people to come to virginia. giving food, lodging, and employment to people who came to virginia to work as servants. allowing proprietors to establish laws for the colony and make a profit from the colony.

giving food, lodging, and employment to people who came to Virginia to work as servants: This system built a labor source of indentured servants who were eventually freed from their debt and became the growing population.

Indentured servants provided population growth for the new colonies as well as labor to support the cash-crop system. Upon fulfilling their debt, many were gifted or purchased land to continue the system. 

Giving food, lodging, and employment to people who came to Virginia to work as servants.
