Sharecroppers, who were mostly poor and lacked resources, were required to give a significant portion of their harvest to the landowner as rent, leaving them with little profit. Additionally, the contracts were often written in complex legal language that sharecroppers could not understand, making it easy for landowners to manipulate the terms and keep the laborers in a cycle of debt and dependency. This system perpetuated economic inequality and limited opportunities for upward mobility.
