The Beginnings of
Industrialization
 Greatly increased output of
machine-made goods that
began in England.
What is the Industrial Revolution?
 It began during the Middle
1700’s
 Prior to machine-made goods,
people wove textiles by hand
 This soon spread to Continental
Europe & North America
 Wealthy landowners began to
purchase up the small amounts
of land once owned by small
village farmers
 Build an enclosures
 Began experimenting with:
Agriculture Revolution Begins
◦ More productive seeding
techniques
◦ Better harvesting methods
 2 Results of enclosure
◦ Trial of new methods
◦ Forced small farmers to be
either tenant farmers or to
move to the city
 Scientific Farmer
 Recognized that sowing seed
by scattering it across the
ground was wasteful
 Invented the horse drawn seed
drill in 1701
 This would create crops into
neat rows
 Seeds would take root at
specific depths
 More seeds took root creating
larger yields of crops
Jethro Tull
Seed Drills
Jethro Tull’s Seed Drill
Modern Seed Drill
Rotating Crops
• Crop Rotation- System of growing different
crop in a field each year to preserve fertility of
the land.
▫ 1st Year plant wheat (exhaust soil nutrients)
▫ 2nd Year plant turnips (restore nutrients)
▫ 3rd Year plant barley and clover
 Robert Bakewell increased
his sheep meat (mutton) by
allowing his best sheep to
breed
Livestock Innovations
 Increased size of lambs
 Food supplies increased
 Living conditions improved
 England’s population
began to increase
