The arrangement agreed to in the contract from Marshall County, Mississippi, in 1867 is most likely 1. sharecropping. Sharecropping was a system that emerged in the South after the Civil War, where landowners allowed tenants to use their land in exchange for a share of the crops produced. The other options, such as black codes and grandfather clauses, relate more to legal restrictions and voting rights rather than agricultural arrangements. The Ten Percent Plan was a plan for Reconstruction proposed by President Lincoln and did not pertain to specific contracts or agricultural agreements.
