As Sharecropping a system of agricultural production is referred to, wherein a land owner or a tenant 'Sharecropper' allows to manage a piece of land and in return receives a portion of the crop, which was generated from the Sharecropper on the piece of land. This type of lease, which was more common in the Anglo-Saxon area, was based essentially on the debt bondage system and was handled in a similar way in the German area with lease in kind .
In contrast to leasing money , the lessor does not receive any money.
