what term refers to the post-Civil War agriculture system where a property owner supplied acreage, tools, and seed to a landless farmer, who then gave the owner a percentage of all he grew? A. sharecropping B. emancipation C. free enterprise D. market economy

OpenStudy (wwhitlock):

The idea was that the farmer and the owner share the profits of the crop. The result was that many of these share crop situations ended up in a kind of slavery. The amount that the share cropper owed the owner always seemed to be more than the amount that the sale of crops produced.

so then it is sharecropping

OpenStudy (wwhitlock):

yup.
