Best Answer

Under this arrangement, laborers with no land of their own worked on farm plots owned by others, and at the end of the season landowners paid workers a share of the crop.

Sharecropping itself is a system used on southern farms after the Civil War in which farmers worked land owned by someone else in return for a small portion od the crops.

However, if your looking for a more simplified general meaning of sharecopping you may put that

Sharecropping was an agricultural labor system

that developed in Georgia and throughout the South following Reconstruction and lasted until the mid-twentieth century.

Why was sharecropping called a new form of slavery?

Sharecropping was often referred to as a new form of slavery because tenants were bound to their landowners economically, much like slaves were tied to their owners. Sharecroppers rarely had autonomy or control over their own lives and were often kept in cycles of debt and poverty, similar to the conditions faced by slaves. Additionally, sharecroppers were often subject to exploitative contracts and harsh treatment by landowners.
