Pinckney's Treaty
Spain, which held most of the territory west of the Mississippi River, refused to acknowledge America's westernmost boundary as the Mississippi where the Treaty of Paris had set it. Spain also denied the U.S. the "right of deposit" at New Orleans, which was also in Spanish possession. A right of deposit allows one nation to temporarily store goods on foreign soil without exorbitant fees. Both of those issues inhibited American trade on the Mississippi.
The United States sought to restore the right of deposit in the port city of New Orleans. In 1798, Spain took away these rights, causing much conflict with the Americans.

A right of deposit allows one nation to temporarily store goods on foreign soil without exorbitant fees. Both of those issues inhibited American trade on the Mississippi.
In the late eighteenth century Spain wanted to deny America the privilege of stockpiling goods until ships came to transport them overseas (the right of deposit). The port that denied Americans this right was New Orleans, along the Mississippi River.
Pickney's Treaty allowed the Americans to travel up the Mississippi River freely and the right to deposit good at the New Orleans docks. This was greatly appreciated by the Americans.
The Louisiana Purchase.
The Pinckney treaty of 1795 established the 31st parallel as the Southern border of the United States with the Spanish Empire (Mexico). It also gave the United States navigation rights to the Mississippi River. The agreement allowed western settlers the "right to deposit" their exports in New Orleans and to engage in commercial transactions within that city.
the agreement was called pickney's treaty. Spain agreed to give America the right of deposit of New Orleans mainly because they were afraid of a US/Great Britain alliance
well.....long story

it helped the farmers with goods sales and their land.
In 1784, the Spanish closed New Orleans to American goods coming down the Mississippi River. In 1795, the border was settled and the U.S. and Spain had a trade agreement. New Orleans was reopened and Americans could transfer goods without paying cargo fees (right of deposit) when transferring goods from one ship to another.
