They have a common root- Bauer in German, literally man of the soil- means both Farmer ( the more dignified) and Peasants. Farmers usually owned their own property which they worked. Peasants includes tenant-farmers, share-croppers ( a system which sounded benign but lent itself to abuses) and the very bottom of the barrel Slaves and serfs. Strange as it sounds there were supposedly laws in the United States ( well after the Civil War, that forbade or highly restricted the agrarian laborer from either changing jobs, or getting into another line of work. They were, in a sense literally tied to a very monotonous and heavy job. In a sense, this was a form of slavery. Thus, Peasant has a derisive aspect, unlike Farmer proper.
