In the wake of the Scientific Revolution, British farmers began applying scientific principles to agriculture, leading to the British Agricultural Revolution. Between the 16th and 18th centuries, agricultural output skyrocketed, leading to the 18th century "population explosion." Food would no longer be scarce in Europe due to four field crop rotation, selective breeding, the enclosure movement, and new inventions such as Jethro Tull's seed drill.
Mr. Richey explains the British Agricultural Revolution in terms of advances in science, entrepreneurship, and technology. When farmers began to see themselves as scientists, businessmen, and inventors, it led to higher crop yields. The new technologies also reduced the need for agricultural laborers, making manpower available for the Industrial Revolution that followed.
