It is 'probably true' that all these contracts heavily favored the landowner. He kept the books and could manipulate costs and profits at will. And of course: no profit, no profit share and payment for the sharecropper. Also, it is true that many landowners had a 'company store' that the sharecroppers were obliged to use. So, even if there was a profit share, most or all of it went to the payment of the debt run up at that store.
