Question
what agricultural practice became much more common in georgia during reconstruction?
a. irrigation
b. sharecropping
c. terraced farming
d. plantation farming
During Reconstruction in Georgia, after the Civil War, many formerly enslaved people and poor white farmers turned to sharecropping. Sharecropping became widespread as a system where landowners provided land, tools, etc., and tenants (sharecroppers) gave a share of the crop. Irrigation and terraced farming weren't majorly common in this context, and plantation farming (with large - scale slave labor) declined post - Civil War. So sharecropping (option B) was the more common agricultural practice.
