ABSTRACT
The first part of this article showed that crop division in Mandatory Palestine incorporated two superimposed principles of tenure. The first of these was the crop-sharing compact between the traditionally acknowledged factors of production that shared in the produce: land, seed, ploughing stock and labour. In Northern Samaria both capital factorsseed and ploughing stock-were contributed by one party, who was said to have been awarded the shadd or cultivation. In other words, he was the farmer.
