3. The Agricultural Revolution

4. Traditional or Pre-Industrial Society
Farming in England in the Middle Ages
Villages feed themselves (subsistence farming)
Farmland divided into 3 fields:
Grain (wheat/rye) for bread
Oats to feed livestock or barley for beer.
One left empty (fallow) to regain soil fertility
Animals grazed in common pastures – no fences 1

5. Traditional or Pre-Industrial Society
Disadvantages
Land use inefficient
Livestock walked across fields, destroying crops.
Farmers didn’t experiment with new farming methods
Forces for Change
Population growing – more food needed
French blockade by Napoleon – no corn import – more food needed 2

6. The Agricultural Revolution
Forces for change spurred beginning of Ag. revolution.
Enclosure Movement: Birth of Private Property
Wealthy landlords fenced in common pastures and experimented with new farming technology
New crops (clover, alfalfa) added more nutrients to soil, increasing yield
Landlords took fields for themselves, left peasants with less land.
Converted crop fields into feeding pastures for sheep
Villages lost common lands & political power, peasants became poorer (no land to farm) 3

7. The Agricultural Revolution
Crop Rotation
Fields depleted of nutrients by one crop replenished by planting different crops in same fields
More diverse crops improved soil & crop yield
Fields not left inefficiently fallow – always in use 4

8. The Agricultural Revolution
Other Discoveries
New seed drills required fewer seeds per field – more efficient
Corn and potatoes introduced from New World
Corn produced more seeds than grains
Potatoes easily grown, high nutritional value, large yields, able to feed poor
Results of Agricultural Revolution
More food available
Population increased 5

12. From Agricultural Revolution to Industrial Revolution
During the late 1700s, changes in farming methods and food production caused Great Britain’s population to increase.
This population increase caused a shift in Britain’s economy:
Moved from farming and handcrafts to an economy based on manufacturing by machines in industrial factories.
This began the era of mass production by machines, which is the basis of the modern economy.

Notes: Cottage Industry to Factory System

21. From Agricultural to Industrial Revolution
As a result of the Agricultural Revolution, the population of Britain increased.
The death rate fell dramatically due to more food being available – less starvation
More children meant families needed more income.
Many people moved into towns in search of a better standard of living.
Urban population grows faster than rural population
Availability of urban workers allows factory owners to open more factories & produce more goods

24. Notes - From Cottage Industry to Factory System

25. Cottage Industry and Early Capitalism
The Cottage Industry, as it was in the late 1700s, was an early example of capitalism.
Merchant’s Role in Cottage Industry
Acted as coordinators between buyers and sellers.
Supplied materials – wool and cotton – to cottages to be carded and spun
Took supplies from spinning cottage to weaving cottage to dying cottage, then sold finished cloth at market
Merchants sell product for more than material and labor costs = profit + larger investment = higher profit

27. Cottage Industry Cotton Cloth Production

28. Cottage Industry and Early Capitalism
An economic system based on private ownership, free competition, and profit
Cottage industry is an example of early capitalism.
Effects of Cottage Industry
Big profits for new class of merchants
Alternative source of income for peasants

29. Technological Advances Threaten Cottage Industry
Cottage Industry could not keep up with demand for cloth.
The invention of the flying shuttle made weaving faster.
Thus, much more thread was required by the weavers so they could produce more cloth faster and make greater profits.
Cottage thread production was too inefficient (slow)

30. A second Invention to Advance the Industry
In 1764 James Hargrove invented the Spinning Jenny, which made the process of making cotton thread faster.
In fact, now the thread making process was out pacing the weaving, making thread faster than it could be used.

31. Textile Industry and Factory System
Textile Industry Invented
New inventions - spinning jenny, water frame, spinning mule - improved spinning rate
Power loom sped up all stages of weaving process
Cotton gin improves efficiency by separating cotton seeds from plant

32. Textile Industry and Factory System
Rise of the Factory
New machines, often too big for homes, were put in factories
Factories located near power source: coal, iron, water
Employers controlled workers’ hours, wages, and working conditions.

33. A Third Invention Effected the Power Source of the Cotton Industry
Another new invention allowed the weavers to catch up with the spinners of the thread.
The water-powered loom was invented by Edmund Cartwright in 1787.
This invention made it more efficient and profitable to bring the workers to the machines in the factories where they would work in tandem (together)

34. Textile Industry and Factory System
Effects of Textile Factories in Britain
Prices of mass-produced textiles were much lower than hand-produced items
Britain’s textile industry became world’s largest
Ended Cottage Industry – most villagers forced to find work in urban factories

35. Writing Activity
Assess the effect that new inventions had on the cottage industry developing into a factory system. (1/2 a page)

36. Exit Slip
Explain how the factory system allowed entrepreneurs to make more money.

41. Need for More Power: The Steam Engine
The Need for Energy
Early factories relied on horses, oxen, and water mills.
Steam engine created in response to the need for more power.
In 1782, James Watt improved an existing steam engine to allow it to power (drive) machines.

42. Steam Engine: Energy for the Industrial Revolution
High Pressure
Now, cotton mills could be located anywhere, usually closer to the natural resources they needed (ships/trains bringing cotton, coal to fire the steam engine, etc…)
How the Steam Engine Works
Forces steam from high to low pressure.
Coal is burned to produce steam.
Steam forced from high to low pressure to move piston.
Piston moves back and forth, turning wheel & driving machine.
Low Pressure

43. Steam Engine: Energy for the Industrial Revolution
Effect of Steam Engine
Steam power, used wherever coal existed, increased textile production
Improved mining yields which increased availability of metals (copper, iron, tin) which fueled other industries

44. Iron and Coal: Energy for the Industrial Revolution
The Need for Iron
Used in farming tools, factory machines, railways.
Smelting makes iron into steel (stronger), but requires carbon from coal.
The Need for Coal
Used in iron smelting, & steam engines as fuel

45. Iron and Coal: Energy for the Industrial Revolution
Effect of Iron and Coal
Britain produced more iron than all other countries of the world combined
Coal powered Britain’s enormous navy – used steam engines for power

46. Transportation The Need for Better Transportation
Increases in manufacturing demanded quicker and less expensive transportation.
Pre-Industrial society used horses, mules, dirt roads

47. Transportation Inventions Effects of Railroads
British government established stone and eventually asphalt roads
Canals – connected cities with coal & iron mines
Railroad era ushered in with the Rocket in 1829
Effects of Railroads
Larger & quicker transportation network
Cheaper transportation increased production profits
Railways fueled other industries: coal, steam engines, iron, steel, and many manufactured products

48. Why Britain Led the Industrial Revolution
Geography
Climate good for textile production
Damp climate kept cloth fibers soft & easy to work with
Abundant natural resources (iron and coal)
Separation from the European continent kept them out of wars
Government
Internal trade encouraged
Population allowed to relocate
Developed transportation systems

49. Why Britain Led the Industrial Revolution
Social Factors
British society more equal than others
Colonial Empire
Supplied raw materials for manufactured goods
Provided a market for goods
Advantages of Industrializing First
No other countries competing for manufactured goods
Monopoly on technology
