A common feature of many sharecropping agreements facilitated by the Freedmen's Bureau was the system of crop liens, where sharecroppers would pledge a portion of their future crop yields as collateral for loans to cover living expenses and supplies. These agreements often placed sharecroppers in a cycle of debt, as they frequently had to borrow more than they could repay, leading to exploitation and economic dependency. Additionally, the contracts typically outlined the division of crops between landowners and sharecroppers, which often heavily favored the landowners. Overall, these agreements were designed to maintain agricultural production while limiting the economic independence of African American families.
