Brendan Kemp · Answer 1

A promised to pay for goods with future earnings.

Explanation:

The crop-lien system was a way for farmers to get credit before the planting season by borrowing against the value of the anticipated harvest. They were provided food and other supplies all on credit and when the cotton crop was harvested farmers turned it over to pay back their loans

Cordell Wilkerson · Answer 2

A. promised to pay for goods with future earnings.

Explanation:

The crop-lien system developed in the United States from the 1860s to the 1930s. This was a credit system that became used among cotton farmers in order to obtain supplies from local merchants. The merchants would provide supplies with the promise of pay with future earnings from a crop. This system established that the merchants and suppliers would be the first people to be paid from the sale.
