The Agricultural Revolution
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 мар 2020
- Most of us know about the industrial revolution and how that era brought about an explosion of innovation that actually continues to this day. For all intents and purposes, we live in the world that revolution created. However very few of us speak about the agricultural revolution that preceded this era, even though it was just as important, if not more.
How come?
At the middle of the 18th century a wave of modernization in the agricultural sector created a spectacular increase in food production. This allowed societies to sustain larger communities, communities that then gradually left the fields to work in the new factories that were now popping up. So let's explore a bit this side of our history and find out how modern agriculture was born.

This was the number 1 factor in the development of modern society.
Pretty much
A good and complete coverage of the ag revolution. The only part that I think you skipped over was the discovery and demand for guano.
This was a very informative video, keep up the good work.
Thanks so much!
Nice!
Have any info about irregation when talking about agriculture. It's what made me curious about the subject
Not really, I know very little about that subject. You could check out this wiki page, for starters: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irrigation
thx
nice
please What is the relationship between the agricultural and industrial revolutions? Is it integrated? How do I show that it is integrated by increasing the production of food faster, which in turn led to an increase in population density, and thus created a huge number of workers for factories. Thus, in your opinion, explained the relationship?
Yes, exactly. Thanks to the shift from subsistence farming to large-scale agriculture farmers were able to increase their yields and feed a growing population. A population that pretty soon found work in the new factories that were popping up.
@@SebastiansFacts thanks a lot, and what about the increase of private land of ownership.
Varta mamey durrrrr
what made the agricultural revolution possible in britain was globalized trade in raw materials, biomass from the colonies(which was the main import) and the domination of poor people is what made it all possible. so i think its misleading to frame it as a story of technological progress, it is a story of imperialism and domination-which like major technological developments- followed from advances in war-making. It was the savagery and greed of the powers that be and nothing has changed for the better
No your wrong
Smh fam imagine being too dumb to invent steel and guns
There is more than enough food to feed the whole world, but rapid population movement creates hunger. I could induce starvation in the US by dropping the population of China into it and waiting a few weeks. The population of the world didn't change, but soon millions would die from starvation.
first
@Ryan kimani yes
many peasants and indigenous horticulturalists were and still are far more advanced than modern industrial agriculture. look at what the aztecs did with their chinampas, a few still exist but now most of what was the aztec capital has been rendered the desolate, toxic wasteland now known has mexico city that was destroyed by the violence of the green revolution. industrial agriculture is raping the world to death and is far inferior to agroecology and traditional peasant agriculture. The yields of the green revolution last for about 5 years before the land, often stolen to this day- enclosure hasnt stopped millions of hectares are being grabbed- is completely emptied of life.
