Haciendas were large estates granted to Spanish colonists in Latin America, while encomiendas were the labor systems used on these estates. Encomienda granted Spanish colonists the right to demand tribute and labor from indigenous people living on the land. The laborers on encomiendas often worked on haciendas as well.
