The effect of the sharecropping system on the South brought prosperity back to plantation owners and tenant farmers.

Explanation:

Sharecropping farming was introduced in the South after the Civil War in America in the Reconstruction era.

  • Many newly freed African Americans moved toward peonage, did sharecropping work to pay off debt through labour.
  • Sharecropping is a system where the planter allows a tenant to use the land.
  • Sharecropping was worse as it increased the amount of debt that freed slaves owed to plantation owners.
  • Sharecropping was similar to slavery, sharecroppers owed money to the plantation owners, and they had to give all money they made from cotton.
  • To clear of debt, former slaves, forced to work in the land of plantation owners and tenant farmers, which brought prosperity back.

Therefore we can conclude that the sharecropping system in the South effected former slaves because they were bound to the land to pay off their debt.

Thus option G. "It brought prosperity back to plantation owners and tenant farmers", is the correct answer.
