Need help reading handwriting on a record

Please see this page of the Record of Freedmen's Complaints.  I am trying to understand the entry on line 54 that appears to be: division of brop.  The handwriting isn't bad, but what is "brop" or am I not reading it correctly?

THANX!

Could it be crop/crops?

The first entry on the page seems to make a reference to crops, too.

I believe it says Crops. See Line 52's entries for comparison

It might be crop, look on the next page at entry 58, the word contract in non settlement of contract.  The c in contract looks like the c in crop.
