Before the Civil War, the South's economy relied heavily on slave labor. After the Civil War ended slavery, slave labor was mostly replaced by sharecropping.

Sharecropping is a form of farming in which families rent small plots of land from a landowner in return for a part of their crop, to be provided to the landowner at the end of each year. In the rural South, it was typically practiced by former slaves.
