Agricultural And Industrial Revolution

Changes began in the late of the 1700’s when power-driven machines began to replace the work people did. It took off in Great Britain. It began to influence other countries such as Europe and the United States. The Industrial Revolution could have only meant several things were coming to change human kid. Not only that, but it was going to leave the people in these countries affected in a negative and positive way. Britain enjoyed a significant economic and technological advantages during the early years of the Industrial Revolution. Not to mention, that there were several major modern political traditions untimely emerging out of the Industrial Revolution.

The Industrial Revolution has been viewed as one of the most influential events to occur on to the economic world in the history of modern society. The invention of many new items that all helped people performed certain tasks more efficiently lead the world to be able to produce many more goods in a much shorter time frame. The impact of the Industrial Revolution on the world as a whole was that it catapulted the world economy into an almost frenzy like state, in which people had access to a much wider variety of goods and services offered to them by businesses. The impact that this event had on the worker’s life was not necessarily a good or bad thing, however. With

The replacement of the idle fallow with crops constituted the Agricultural Revolution. It was important because the new types of crops made allowed farmers to feed their animals more, which led to a greater amount of meat and improved diets. It had the greatest effect in England and the Low Countries.

One of the innovations that stood out the most during the American Industrial Revolution were with the advancement with Agriculture. Despite the other benefits made during the American industrial revolution, such as steel and oil, agriculture remained the nation's basic occupation. The revolution in agriculture during the time involved a shift from hand labor to machine farming and from subsistence (maintaining/supporting for oneself) to a commercial agriculture. There were a few contributing factors to the achievement of agricultural success. One of them was the expansion to the West and another was the use of machinery for farming. Innovations such as The Reaper, The Thresher, Steel Plow, and Combine encouraged farming in the prairie lands

The Industrial Revolution began in England in the late 1700’s. The Industrial Revolution was a time of new inventions, products, and methods of work. The results of the Industrial Revolution led to many short and long-term positive and negative effects. These results have been assessed from many viewpoints such as the factory workers, the factory owners, the government, and other people who observed the conditions in industrial cities.

The Industrial Revolution was a revolution in every sense of the word, as it altered almost every aspect of live in the nineteenth century including technology, government, communication, environment and eventually society as a whole.1 Although industrialisation created many positives for modern society, for people in Britain up to the end of the nineteenth century it had many significantly negative consequences. With the long term advances made for society came the then current development of overcrowding cities abundant with pollution, health problems and poor living conditions for the working class. These poor conditions continued into the work place with young children exploited as workers as young as the age of four or five.2 There were consequences of the Industrial Revolution for people outside of the core of Britain. India, being the periphery in the model were exploited for their raw materials which were exported to Britain.

In the late 18th century when the Industrial Revolution started to spread from England to other countries such as France, Spain and Germany and even in the U.S, the changes that its dynamic brought to the society were drastic and radically different of what people were used to until then. The work hours become longer; young children and their parents were working most of the time; new factories opened up and old villages now were the main workforce source to keep the production level up to the demand and supply requests. Villages started turning into urban centers, crowded by large number of people; poor people that

By 1750 U.S was mainly agricultural, this meant the country was essentially pre-industrial and domestic. According to our text 9 out of every 10 Americans lived on a farm (2). Households were generally engaged in subsistence farming and production was done mostly for home consumption. America had an immeasurable amount of fertile unused land that the government gave away (2). At the time of George Washington's inauguration in 1789 the U,S population comprised of 4 million people. The population had doubled to 8 million at the time of the War of 1812 and then again to 16 million in 1835. This rapid population growth did not stop until 1858, we did however continue to increase in number just at a slower pace, hitting our 100 million mark in 1915, and 300 million in 2006 (3). As the population rapidly increased so did the output of farm labor.

In the 1700s England went through a major change which would soon spread to the rest of Europe and finally the rest of the world. This major change was referred to as The Industrial Revolution which signaled a shift from agriculture to industry. People were pushed out the of the farms and into factories. This major change effected all types of people from farmers and peasants to inventors. The Industrial Revolution began in England because of its location and resources, their innovations and the new tools they created, the labor force of farmers and peasants working in the factories along with no political interference.

The Industrial Revolution had both positive and negative consequences on society. Many say that the Industrial Revolution would have never happened if the Agricultural Revolution didn’t occur. The Agricultural Revolution began with the creation of new labor saving inventions and techniques to help increase farm productivity and efficiency. The British Parliament then enacted The Enclosure Act which fenced off many small, peasant owned farms, and transformed them into one big farm. This drastically increased farm output. However, this threw many small farmers out of work and it was these farmers who became the major workforce for the textile factories. In the factories, the workers would make .While some might argue that Industrialization had primarily positive consequences for society because of economic growth and the higher standard of living, it was actually a negative thing for society. Industrialization’s

The Agricultural Revolution was a time period in which farmers begin to use efficient ways to plant things. This event led to fewer people being needed on farms since the machines used for farming only need a few workers. Because farming took fewer workers, the population of Europe increased. Workers were able to have a life outside of the harsh labor of farming. The Agricultural Revolution helped paved the way for the Industrial Revolution in Britain. The industrial revolution was a time period in the 18th century in which the British experienced changes in technology and an increase in power. These technological changes made possible a great increase in the use of natural resources and the mass production of manufactured goods. Although the industrial revolution seemed like a helpful event to the people of Europe, it caused more damaging effects than it did good.

The Industrial revolution was established in England around the late 1700’s. During this time, there was an increase of production by mecheniary and new resources. Several negative and positives outcomes came from the Industrial Revolution. The Industrial revolution fundamentally chnaged British life in the early 1800s by polluting the envierment, appaling working conditions and leaading British to writte acts to protect childrens rights.

I don't believe the Agricultural Revolution was a mistake because with out it we wouldn't of learned about infectious diseases and parasites, along with significance of diets, and the importance of storing food. Back than they did not have refrigeration or proper canning techinques but from this we were able to learn that if you store food you can keep it for longer periods of time instead of eating the food the same day it was collected. Also from understanding about proper storing techniques we were able to learn more about diseases. Many farmers would loose their crops to diseases spread by insects or the soil. Now we know to spray pesticides and grow crops during their specific growing season to help prevent diseases. For example corn is

Welcome to the age of an agricultural revolution as everyday biotechnology continues to bring innovation to human’s most basic needs – food. Food is essential to any living organism, providing energy for our production and nutrients for our protection. Without this fundamental element, life cannot exist. Our lack to produce our own energy, like plants, causes us to become dependent on others for survival. Humans existence is attributed only to the million years of evolution our food source underwent to sustain our survival. Changing the primary nature of our food source, whether it is plant or animal, directs mankind in a dangerous future if our food dependency is permanently hampered. Welcome to the age of an agricultural devolution

In this unit’s text, we learned about modernization of society and how agriculture permitted nomadic hunt-and-gather groups to become stabilized and centralized in one location. The text and supporting video clips introduced both positive and negative anthropological effects of the rise of agriculture. Three positive outcomes include stabilization, improved nutrition, and food surplus. For each of these positive instances, there is an alternate and negative impact as well: habitat destruction, feast and famine cycles, and health concerns. This essay will briefly expound on each positive outcome and its counterpart, and will relate the sustainable agrarian achievements of the people of the Gamo Highlands to these effects.
