New farming Techniques

Iron Plow

Throughout the early 1700s new technologies helped improve farming and increased food production

Iron Plow Seed Drill Turnip Townshend

The wooden plow was useful in the sandy Mediterranean soil where it was invented, but did not work well in the dense wet soil of Europe. The Iron plow was heavy and strong enough to easily break Europe’s soil.

Jethro Tull created a seed drill to plant seeds in straight lines. These crops could be weeded easily.

Instead of leaving fields fallow, Townshend urged farmers to plant turnips, which restored exhausted soil.

Population ExplosionMore food=bigger population

Estimated population statistics:Britain in 1700: 5 millionBritain in 1800: 9 million Almost Double!!

What other time period does this population increase remind you of?

Industrial Revolution

• The Industrial Revolution is the name given to the massive social, economic and technological change in 18th and 19th century Great Britain. It commenced with the introduction of steam power, fueled primarily by coal.

Page 6: The Agricultural Revolution Revolution=change. New farming Techniques Iron Plow Throughout the early 1700s new technologies helped improve farming and.

Industrial ChangeThe Industrial revolution refers to the shift from simple hand

tools to complex machines AND from human & animal power to steam power.

Page 7: The Agricultural Revolution Revolution=change. New farming Techniques Iron Plow Throughout the early 1700s new technologies helped improve farming and.

Before

After

People live and work in small farming villages

DuringPeople move from farming villages

to new city centers based on industry- urbanization

Cities become overcrowded with working families

Page 8: The Agricultural Revolution Revolution=change. New farming Techniques Iron Plow Throughout the early 1700s new technologies helped improve farming and.

Causes of Industrialization

1. Availability of natural resources for fuel (coal)

2. Capital (money surplus to invest)

3. Technological inventions and energy

Page 9: The Agricultural Revolution Revolution=change. New farming Techniques Iron Plow Throughout the early 1700s new technologies helped improve farming and.

Capital

Capital (money for investing) allowed for new inventions:

Steam Engine- powered machines without needing to be next to a moving water source. Heats

water by burning coal.

Spinning Jenny- Quickly produces thread.

Page 10: The Agricultural Revolution Revolution=change. New farming Techniques Iron Plow Throughout the early 1700s new technologies helped improve farming and.

Transportation SystemsInventions allowed for the production of large quantities of product but transportation was slow.

Turnpikes- private roads that charged $$ to transport on. Example I-90

Steamships- ships powered with steam could move faster and reliably without wind.

Railroads- steam powered locomotives could carry large loads quickly across vast distances. The first major line laid in 1830. Within 40 years lines crossed Europe and America.

Effects of Industrialization

1)Urbanization

2)Loss of Traditional way of Life

3)New Economic Systems

4)Doomsayers

Page 12: The Agricultural Revolution Revolution=change. New farming Techniques Iron Plow Throughout the early 1700s new technologies helped improve farming and.

1. UrbanizationMovement of people to cities to find work.

What do you already know about the conditions in these factories and cities?

Child Labor

Dark, unsafe factories

Long hours and little pay

Poor living conditions

Page 13: The Agricultural Revolution Revolution=change. New farming Techniques Iron Plow Throughout the early 1700s new technologies helped improve farming and.

Origin of textile factory workersBefore

• Cotton was sent to farm families who would spin cotton into cloth.

middle

• Cloth was sent to artisans to dye and weave

end

• Dyed cloth was sent to small factories to weave

What is wrong with this process?

Too slow and too expensive. Only small quantities could be produced keeping cost high

Page 14: The Agricultural Revolution Revolution=change. New farming Techniques Iron Plow Throughout the early 1700s new technologies helped improve farming and.

Origin of Textile Factory WorkersNew inventions were bought by rich capitalists. The machines turned out cheaper and better products than the farm workers.

Thus the workers become disposable.

Page 15: The Agricultural Revolution Revolution=change. New farming Techniques Iron Plow Throughout the early 1700s new technologies helped improve farming and.

2. Loss of Traditional Way of life

The customs and traditions of the farms and past are replaced by the “new” city ways. Traditional ways are blended or lost as a result

Page 16: The Agricultural Revolution Revolution=change. New farming Techniques Iron Plow Throughout the early 1700s new technologies helped improve farming and.

ReviewWhich condition is most necessary to the process of industrialization in a society

1) Dependence on subsistence agriculture2) Creation of a one-crop economy3) Availability of investment capital4) Capture of foreign lands

Page 17: The Agricultural Revolution Revolution=change. New farming Techniques Iron Plow Throughout the early 1700s new technologies helped improve farming and.

ReviewBefore a nation can begin to industrialize, that nation must first develop

1. A democratic government2. A rigid class structure3. A strong religious foundation4. An adequate food supply

Page 18: The Agricultural Revolution Revolution=change. New farming Techniques Iron Plow Throughout the early 1700s new technologies helped improve farming and.

Review-Europeans sought new markets for their goods.-Many Europeans migrated to the cities in search of jobs.-European middle class gained political power.

What was the major cause of these changes in Europe? 1. Industrial Revolution 2. rise of feudalism 3. Congress of Vienna 4. French Revolution

Page 19: The Agricultural Revolution Revolution=change. New farming Techniques Iron Plow Throughout the early 1700s new technologies helped improve farming and.

3. New Economic Systems

-Capitalism

-Utopianism

-Communism

Shift from a traditional economic system based on bartering and trade to mostly money based exchanges.

Page 20: The Agricultural Revolution Revolution=change. New farming Techniques Iron Plow Throughout the early 1700s new technologies helped improve farming and.

Capitalism

Wealthy people (entrepreneurs) and companies will invest money, capital, into factories

Entrepreneurs believed they would make money off of the growing demand.

The idea is it takes money to make money

Page 21: The Agricultural Revolution Revolution=change. New farming Techniques Iron Plow Throughout the early 1700s new technologies helped improve farming and.

Capitalism In a Capitalist society the factories are owned by private investors who’s goal is to make money.

Adam Smith believed in Laissez Faire economics based on supply and demand. If the demand is high and the investors are making money, they will make more supply.

Page 22: The Agricultural Revolution Revolution=change. New farming Techniques Iron Plow Throughout the early 1700s new technologies helped improve farming and.

Capitalist Cycle

Capitalism

Growing Demand

Investors buy machines to

produce large quantities

Supply increases, prices fall

Lower prices fuel

more demand

Page 23: The Agricultural Revolution Revolution=change. New farming Techniques Iron Plow Throughout the early 1700s new technologies helped improve farming and.

Utopians

Some believed that the goal of society was “the greatest happiness for the greatest number” of citizens.

Utopians want to achieve this by creating communities where everything is shared and everyone works together to produce necessary items, food, supplies, etc.

Page 24: The Agricultural Revolution Revolution=change. New farming Techniques Iron Plow Throughout the early 1700s new technologies helped improve farming and.

CommunismForm of socialism advocated by Karl Marx; according to Marx, class struggle was inevitable and would lead to the creation of a classless society in which all wealth and property would be owned by the community as a whole.

What you need to know:a communist society has no class structure because everyone is equal and all property is shared.

Page 25: The Agricultural Revolution Revolution=change. New farming Techniques Iron Plow Throughout the early 1700s new technologies helped improve farming and.

Karl Marx Known as the father of communism

Teamed up with Friedrich Engels to write, “The Communist Manifesto”.

Marx believes that history is just a history of class struggles: between the “haves” and “have-nots”

Page 26: The Agricultural Revolution Revolution=change. New farming Techniques Iron Plow Throughout the early 1700s new technologies helped improve farming and.

Haves and Have-nots

Bourgeoisie: they own the means of production and control society

The Entrepreneurs and investors

The bosses

Haves Have-notsProletariat: they own nothing and work for the bourgeoisie

The proletariats will struggle against the bosses

3. listing of the accomplishments of the ruling classes

4. continuous struggle between economic classes

Page 31: The Agricultural Revolution Revolution=change. New farming Techniques Iron Plow Throughout the early 1700s new technologies helped improve farming and.

ReviewA major result of the Industrial Revolution was the

1. concentration of workers in urban areas 2. increased desire of the wealthy class to share its

power 3. formation of powerful craft guilds 4. control of agricultural production by governments

Page 32: The Agricultural Revolution Revolution=change. New farming Techniques Iron Plow Throughout the early 1700s new technologies helped improve farming and.

Stages of CommunismAccording to Marx, history has been the story of the struggle between the workers and bosses.

1) Capital

2) Factories are built

3) Factories need workers

4) Conflict

5) Communism

Page 33: The Agricultural Revolution Revolution=change. New farming Techniques Iron Plow Throughout the early 1700s new technologies helped improve farming and.

#1 Capital

Remember one of the causes of the Industrial Revolution is capital, or surplus money used for investment.

DoomsayersSome saw the new industrialization as a negative for society.

Thomas Malthus believed the growing population would outgrow the food supply.

“Poverty and misery are unavoidable because population is increasing faster then the food supply”

David Ricardo felt there was no hope for the working class to escape poverty unless they limit their family sizes. He created the Iron Law of Wages.

Page 41: The Agricultural Revolution Revolution=change. New farming Techniques Iron Plow Throughout the early 1700s new technologies helped improve farming and.

Iron Law of WagesHigh wages to appeal to the few available

workers

Families have more children

Wages start to fall because kids are working. Increasing the labor force
