1 März 1870 Jahr - Prison Farms and Convict Leasing

Beschreibung:

Convict Leasing is A prison farm (also known as a penal farm) is a large correctional facility where penal labor convicts are forced to work on a farm (in the wide sense of a productive unit), usually for manual labor, largely in open air, such as in agriculture, logging, quarrying, and mining.

A prison farm or in a penal colony, inmates may be forced to do farm work for private enterprises by being farmed out through the practice of convict leasing to work on private agricultural lands or related industries (fishing, lumbering, etc.). The party purchasing their labor from the government generally does so at a steep discount from the cost of free labor.
