Because at first, the sharecropper wanted to get a place to live, food, and money. The landowner wanted a person to grow crops for him. The sharecropper got half the crops he grew, shelter provided by the landowner, and money from any extra crop. This fulfilled all of the sharecropper's needs. The landowner got half of the crops grown by the sharecropper, and he didn't even have to do ANYTHING. That is why sharecropping looked like a good idea for both sides in the beginning.
