Revolution in Agriculture
Food supply never certain, especially in the east Crop failure = malnutrition or starvation (death) Price fluctuation
Smaller supply Greater population demand Prices increase sharply
1700- small farms disappearing Wealthy buy out village farms- then rent them out Known as enclosure- as land was fenced in
Intend to use land more rationally and for greater profits Landlords commercialize agriculture, challenge the
traditional peasant ways of production Peasants revolt

The Difference Villagers= traditional methods of farming Wealthy landowners- free to experiment
w/ new methods Use scientific approach to increase harvest
size Ideas and harvest size exchanged Effected by Scientific Rev. and Enlightenment

New Methods
Dutch agricultural reform – devise better dikes and drainage systems, try new crops, better yield of animal fodder (fertilizer), better soil = better crops English hire Cornelius Vermuyden to help in Cambridge
Jethro Tull- 1721 seed drill Well spaced rows, specific depth More germination = larger crop
Charles “Turnip” Townsend Crop Rotation- most revolutionary discovery
Wheat, turnips, barley, and clover Don’t need to leave one fallow!
Turnips enrich the soil and help with nutrient rich animal fodder

New Farming Methods
Robert Bakewell- selective breeding of animals Breed the animals who yield more milk and
meat

Agriculture in the rest of Europe
France – restricts the enclosure movement
Prussia, Austria, Poland and Russia Begin plowing untilled lands Doesn’t increase production, just work load of
the serfs Maize and potatoes introduced
![Page 12: Agriculture, industrialization, and urbanization](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052506/5578ada6d8b42a4d4b8b4cf2/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Effects on Population
More food due to better livestock & crop rotation
Smaller farmers pushed off land Left cities for colonies Became labor force for industry
Nutrition improved= increase in population= working class in cities
![Page 13: Agriculture, industrialization, and urbanization](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052506/5578ada6d8b42a4d4b8b4cf2/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Population Explosion!
1700 1800 1850
Europe’s overall population (not including Ottoman Empire)
100 -120 million 190 million 260 million
1750 1800
England and Wales
6 million 10 million
1715 1789
France 18 million 26 million
1722 1766
Russia 22 million 29 million

Why?
Death rate declined Hygiene and sanitation improved Less wars and epidemics during the 1700s Better medical knowledge and techniques
(thanks scientific revolution!) The potato (1 acre = enough potatoes to
feed a family for a whole year!) more people lived in the countryside than
could find employment there…so…they headed to the cities!

Grab a book!
Read page 506 “Water, Washing, and Bathing” What was scarce in Europe until the late 1800s? What was water used for? During the Middle Ages, what did people believe
your personal appearance reflected? How does that change during the Renaissance and
Reformation? Which parts of the body were you supposed to
wash? Why were public bathhouses sketchy? How does linen clothing contribute to changes in
societal beliefs? What theory causes bathing to become popular?

Textile Industry GB led wool industry
Wool spun by hand- demand not met, prices high
Desire for inventions for spinning and weaving Inventions transform cotton industry
![Page 25: Agriculture, industrialization, and urbanization](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052506/5578ada6d8b42a4d4b8b4cf2/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

Inventions 1779 Samuel Crompton- spinning mule
Water frame & spinning jenny combo Factories were built- too large and expensive for
home 1785 Edmund Cartwright- power loom
Weavers kept up w/ spinning
![Page 29: Agriculture, industrialization, and urbanization](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052506/5578ada6d8b42a4d4b8b4cf2/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Inventions Late 1700’s- cotton supply can’t keep up 1763 Eli Whitney- cotton gin
Removes seed from cotton 1785- 40 million yards 1850- 2 billion yards
![Page 30: Agriculture, industrialization, and urbanization](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052506/5578ada6d8b42a4d4b8b4cf2/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

Inventions Watts & steam engine
Problem- factories had to be by water (far from raw materials)
Solution- steam new power source Old engines for mines too slow & expensive Michael Boulton helps Watts Steam engine more practical
![Page 32: Agriculture, industrialization, and urbanization](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052506/5578ada6d8b42a4d4b8b4cf2/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)

Urbanization
In 1500 only 156 cities have populations of more than 10,000 Paris, Milan, Venice, and Naples – 100,000+
By 1800 – 363 cities have 10,000 or more 17 cities have 100,000+
Percentage of population living in cities changes from 5% to 9%
![Page 34: Agriculture, industrialization, and urbanization](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052506/5578ada6d8b42a4d4b8b4cf2/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)

Even in France and GB, less than 20% of the population lived in the cities
Towns of 10,000 were much more common than urban centers
Between 1500-1750 – most urban expansion occurred in already established cities 1600-1750 – towns of less than 40,000
declined 1750 on – birth of new cities, rapid
growth of older cities
![Page 36: Agriculture, industrialization, and urbanization](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052506/5578ada6d8b42a4d4b8b4cf2/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Trends of Growth/Decline
What types of cities do you think grew most rapidly? Capitals Port cities
Which cities would have declined between 1600-1750? Older landlocked trading centers Medieval industrial cities Ecclesiastical centers
![Page 37: Agriculture, industrialization, and urbanization](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052506/5578ada6d8b42a4d4b8b4cf2/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
“urban growth from below” (Jan De Vries, 1981)
Overall population increase More food = more people = moving to
towns with factories Promotes growth of nearby market towns
![Page 38: Agriculture, industrialization, and urbanization](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052506/5578ada6d8b42a4d4b8b4cf2/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Bonus Time!!
Bonus Opportunity Read the “urban class” section on p. 505-8 Draw a cartoon that reflects the urban classes
of the upper, middle, artisan, and lower classes
![Page 39: Agriculture, industrialization, and urbanization](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052506/5578ada6d8b42a4d4b8b4cf2/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Urban Classes Great dichotomy between
the urban rich and the urban poor
Both upper class and middle class sought to strengthen their political influence (but independently)
Aristocrats and the upper middle class Live in fashionable town
houses Upper Class
Nobles, large merchants, bankers, clergy, gov’t officials
![Page 40: Agriculture, industrialization, and urbanization](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052506/5578ada6d8b42a4d4b8b4cf2/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Middle Class Prosperous, merchants, trades people, bankers,
and professionals Bourgeoisie More comfortable than urban artisans Tensions within middle class (merchants v
professionals, etc)
![Page 41: Agriculture, industrialization, and urbanization](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052506/5578ada6d8b42a4d4b8b4cf2/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Urban Classes
Artisans – single largest group in the city Grocers, butchers, carpenters, cabinetmakers,
smiths, printers, hand-loom weavers, tailors, etc
Vulnerable (crops, others incomes, etc) Often live above their shop Guilds limited, not as dominant as Middle
Ages, but for some crafts they try to limit how many people learn a particular skill
![Page 42: Agriculture, industrialization, and urbanization](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052506/5578ada6d8b42a4d4b8b4cf2/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Urban poor usually lived around the rivers Single room homes The desperate often resort to crimes, prostitution, vagrancy, begging,
and alcoholism Towns that emerge around factories have deplorable conditions
Peasants Poverty greater in the countryside some head to the cities to find a better life, but find misery in the city
![Page 43: Agriculture, industrialization, and urbanization](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052506/5578ada6d8b42a4d4b8b4cf2/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Urban Riot
Often led by artisans, when what was “economically just” had been offended
Price of bread Artisan leaders would often confiscate the bread
or grain and sell it at a “just” price Benefits?
Restrains greed of merchants Other riots break out on behalf of discriminated
minorities Crowd usually attacks property not other people For economic or political gains
![Page 44: Agriculture, industrialization, and urbanization](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052506/5578ada6d8b42a4d4b8b4cf2/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Jewish Communities
Amsterdam, some W. European cities Significant contributors to the intellectual and financial
institutions Eastern Europe
1762 – Catherine the Great (Russ) excludes the Jewish people in a manifesto that welcomed foreigners to settle in Russia Jewish populations seek protection for their livelihoods and
religious practices from local officials Often resident aliens of countries, without full rights Usually live separately from non-Jewish Europeans in ghettos,
often self-governing Often could not pursue professions freely Could not move without permission Could be expelled from their homes and have properties
confiscated
