What was the main difference between sharecroppers and tenant farmers?

Tenant farmers generally owned their own supplies and equipment, while sharecroppers relied on the landowner to provide many of these necessities. Both groups farmed land they did not own and paid the landowner with money or a share of the crop, but their access to equipment was a key difference. Therefore, “Tenant farmers had their own supplies and equipment” is correct.
