  1. (i) Enclosures began in the 18th century for grain production.
    (ii) The English population was increasing rapidly.
    (iii) This led to increased demand for foodgrains to feed the population.
    (iv) Britain at that time was industrialising and more and more people were
    migrating to towns in search of jobs. A the urban population grew, the
    demand for foodgrains increased, thereby pressurising the peasants to
    fulfil the demand.
