Often there were partnership pairs. Each partner would put in one ox, and together they would prepare the fields, the seed, and the labor, then share the harvest. If their fields weren’t enough, they rented fields from those who did not have a pairing. For as much seed as one field required for sowing, they paid rent accordingly, which they called “chorafoskepasi” (field covering). Sometimes in the pair, one would put in both the fields and the seed, while the other put in only the labor and received one-third of the harvest. This one was called the “tritaris” (one-third partner).
