Explanation:

Sharecroppers are almost always poor, and are often in debt to landowners or other people. Sharecropping is a type of farming in which families rent small plots of land from a landowner in return for a portion of their crop, to be given to the landowner at the end of each year. They did not need to pay these laborers money.
