Sharecropping was a practice which involved a Tenant and a landlord. The landlord seek for labors to work in their field after the abolition of slavery and in the same way labors needed the job. Thus Landlords allowed the tenets to grow crops in their fields in exchange of share of the production. Thus labors were paid with crops and not cash. This system started after the end of Civil war which ended the slavery. It was practiced in the southern states of the USA which bounded the labors to get paid through crops and production.
Though the process doesn't involved the practice of slavery but it was an injustice done to the labors. They were in a need for money to pay rents and tools for agriculture. The availability of crops with them was an another burden which demanded for travel, transport, sell the crops and then gain the cash. Their efforts had more price than the production paid by the landlord.
