Sharecropping itself is not illegal, but the exploitative practices often associated with it can be illegal, such as unfair land rental agreements or poor labor conditions. Some countries have laws regulating agricultural arrangements like sharecropping to protect the rights of tenants and prevent exploitation.
Sharecropping replaced the plantation system in the South after the Civil War as a way for freed slaves and poor whites to work the land they previously worked as slaves. Under this system, laborers rented land and resources from landowners in exchange for a share of the crops produced, allowing for some autonomy but also perpetuating cycles of debt and poverty.
