Slide 2: Causes of the Agricultural Revolution

• Need for more efficient food production due to growing population.
• Innovations in farming techniques and tools.
• Changes in land ownership and farming methods.
• Influence of the Scientific Revolution on agriculture.

Slide 3: Key Innovations

• Crop Rotation: Alternating crops to maintain soil nutrients.
• Seed Drill: Invented by Jethro Tull, allowed for efficient planting.
• Selective Breeding: Improving livestock for better yield and health.
• Enclosure Movement: Consolidation of land leading to more effective farming.

Slide 4: Impact on Farming Practices

• Farming became more organized and efficient.
• Larger fields with fewer farmers due to new techniques.
• Introduction of new crops, like potatoes and turnips.
• Increased use of fertilizers and improved irrigation methods.

Slide 6: Economic Effects

• Growth of towns and cities as agricultural surplus supported trade.
• Emergence of a market economy and agricultural capitalism.
• Farmers started to make profits, leading to investments in technology.
• Increased demand for labour in both farms and factories.

Slide 7: Environmental Consequences

• Changes to landscapes, with more land being cleared for farming.
• Impact on wildlife and natural habitats.
• Soil depletion due to overuse without proper management.
• Introduction of new plant species altered local ecosystems.

Slide 8: Conclusion

• The Agricultural Revolution was a transformative period in British history.
• Laid the foundation for the Industrial Revolution.
• Changes set the stage for modern agriculture and society.
• Importance of understanding this period in the context of development.
