Following the civil war, were very common in southern agriculture, bringing with them work tools and work animals. a) freemen b) land owners c) sharecroppers d) tenant farmers

D)tenant farmers

Explanation: The best answer here is tenant farmers. They differed from sharecroppers in that tenant farmers actually owned some private property, though that was limited to farming implements. Sharecroppers, on the other hand, only had their labor to give. Neither, however, had ultimate rights to the land on which they worked, since it was owned by wealthy, often elite Southerners.
