	Handbook of Texas Online:
		Although statistics on farm tenure by race were not collected until 1900, fls comprised a much higher proportion of the total number of tenant farmers than their proportion of the population.
		This led to a corresponding increase in the proportion of tenants.
		In terms of the population as a whole, in 1930, nearly one quarter of all Texans lived on tenant farms.

	Tenant farmer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A tenant farmer is one who resides on and farms land owned by a landlord.
		In some systems, he could be evicted at whim (tenancy at will); in others, he signs a contract for a fixed number of years (tenancy for years or indenture).
		Tenant farming is distinct from the serfdom of medieval Europe, where the land and the serfs were legally inseparable.

	G820 Does the Family Farm Really Matter?, MU Extension
		Even though family farms are not defined here by volume of sales or assets, a system dominated by a relative handful of very large farms would not be considered a family farming system, regardless of who owns, works on, or manages individual farms.
		Farm leaders often declare that family farmers accept a stewardship relationship to soil and the environment.
		Moreover, the historical record shows that when tenant farming becomes widespread, it is difficult for the tenant farmer to protect his income because of the intensified competition for land.

	Handbook of Texas Online:
		Generally, in tenant farming the landlord or planter contracted with the tenant for the cultivation of a small plot of land (usually in the range of 16-20 acres) on which the tenant was expected to raise as much cotton as possible.
		Yet the average value of farm assets, including land and buildings, rose from approximately $9,000 to $475,000, and the cash receipts from crop and livestock marketings jumped from $1.1 billion to $11.8 billion as the average farm size grew from 367 acres to 700 acres.
		Though approximately three-fourths of the farms in the state were smaller than 500 acres by 1990, 80 percent of the commodity sales came from 8.7 percent of the farm units, an indication of the impact of the large commercial operations upon agricultural production.

	Developing a Farm Newsletter for Landlords - C2-14 April 2004
		Thus, it is not uncommon for a tenant seldom to have contact with the landowner outside of the customary rental settlement.
		Because tenants may rent from multiple landowners and the landowners may have multiple interests, providing general summary information is a safe method.
		The tenants can discuss topics such as the importance of biotechnology in farming (e.g., how it may have a positive environmental impact), how precision agriculture works, and the information they have compiled for the landowners’ farms (e.g., yield maps).

	Farmers Without Land: The Plight of White Tenant Farmers and Sharecroppers (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		While farming provided a route to economic success for many white Mississippians, a number of whites could always be found at the bottom of the agricultural ladder, working as tenant farmers or sharecroppers, a status more typically associated with fl Mississippians in the century after the American Civil War.
		Many rented land from or farmed on shares with family members and typically received favorable arrangements, but some antebellum tenants or sharecroppers had to deal with landlords who were primarily concerned with making profits rather than helping struggling farmers move toward landownership.
		While tenant farmers were perhaps somewhat better off than sharecroppers, most tenant farmers were only one bad crop away from slipping into the cycle of debt common among sharecroppers.

	Shall I Take Up Farming?_How Does Tenant Farming Work? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		For those who plan to rent a farm, the chief considerations arc (1) the land must be suitable for the type of farming planned; (2) the buildings and equipment should be in a satisfactory condition; and (3) the lease should be fair.
		The advantages of the first are that the tenant in many cases is free to manage the farm as he pleases, and as a long-time proposition he may pay less rent than under crop-sharing arrangements.
		The chief disadvantage is that the tenant agrees to pay a definite sum before he knows what his income will be.

	American Passages - Unit 13. Southern Renaissance: Context Activities
		Sharecropping was the system of tenant farming which gradually emerged as the answer to the dilemmas of both freedman and planter.
		In this system, freedmen and poor whites who were unable to afford land of their own contracted with landowners to work a particular piece of land in exchange for a share of the crops or revenue they produced in a given season.
		Typically, a small group of laborers--often a family but sometimes simply a group of workers who got along well together--would agree to cultivate a certain parcel of land in exchange for one-quarter to one-half the crop as wages, to be paid at the end of the season.

	National Park Service Research and Eduation: Scholarship on Southern Farms and Plantations
		The homesite, that is, the farm on which the planter's house was situated, was a complex cultural landscape in itself where whites and fls lived and worked together in close contact.
		Clearly slaves on such farms, often quite remote from the planter's mansion house on the homesite, were able to exercise a degree of autonomy in their homes and their private lives.
		Thus it was more difficult for slaves on smaller farms to maintain a distinct cultural identity, to develop relationships with slaves on other properties, or to have a sense of control over their work or their environment.
