Question

which of these statements describe life after the agricultural revolution? choose three answers. most farmland was controlled by the wealthy. people moved to cities to find work. farms produced fewer crops. more people lived and worked in rural areas. landowners put enclosures around land.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  • Most farmland was controlled by the wealthy: Enclosure acts and changes in land - ownership during the Agricultural Revolution led to large - scale land - concentration in the hands of the rich.
  • People moved to cities to find work: As more land was enclosed (by landowners putting enclosures around land), many small - scale farmers were displaced. They had to move to cities in search of employment opportunities, such as in the emerging industries.
  • Landowners put enclosures around land: Enclosure was a key practice during the Agricultural Revolution. It involved landowners fencing off their land, which led to more efficient (in the eyes of the landowners) agricultural practices like large - scale farming and livestock rearing.

Farms actually produced more crops due to improved agricultural techniques (so "Farms produced fewer crops" is wrong). And fewer people lived and worked in rural areas as many were displaced to cities (so "More people lived and worked in rural areas" is wrong).

Answer:

Most farmland was controlled by the wealthy, People moved to cities to find work, Landowners put enclosures around land.
