mar 1, 1773 - Inclosure Act of 1773

Description:

The Inclosure Act of 1773 enclosed open farm land, as well as denying anyone except the owners/employees entry. This forced out the old systems, such as the open field system, and pushed in systems such as crop rotation. This majorly pushed jobs, from being to survive, to prosper. This act boosted the life expectancy as well as standard of living. This is a change, and certainly for the better.
