In ancient China, farmers typically paid for the use of land through a system known as the "corvΓ©e labor" system. They would provide labor service to the landlord or the state for a certain number of days each year in exchange for the right to cultivate the land. This labor obligation was considered as payment for the land use. Additionally, farmers would also pay a portion of their harvest as rent or taxes to the landlord or the state.
The Anit-rent war according to Wiki, I seem to recall it also being called the "Farmer's Rebellion".

In the medieval society the peasant was a man who worked/farmed for his rent. He gave his labor to the lord of the manor for a place to live and a small patch of land to grow a few things. When there was a war his farm tools became weapons and he fought as a foot soldier to defend his manor/king.
The term for farmers who did not pay rent but worked the land they lived on is "sharecroppers." Sharecroppers typically paid a portion of their crops or profits to the landowner as rent. This system was prevalent in the Southern United States after the Civil War and often resulted in cycles of debt and poverty for the sharecroppers.

Tenant farmers rented land and paid a fixed rent to the landowner, while sharecroppers did not pay rent but instead received a portion of the crops they grew as payment. Sharecroppers typically had less control over their farming decisions and were more vulnerable to exploitation than tenant farmers.

Tenant farmers were different from sharecroppers because they usually had their own tools and animals.
