Answer 1

In the system of share-tenancy, the statement that is true is:

Farmers had more control over their crops than with sharecropping.

In share-tenancy, farmers (tenants) generally had greater autonomy in choosing what to plant compared to sharecroppers, who often had less control and had to adhere more strictly to the landowner’s requirements.
