Question

Answer 1

Explanation:

• Indigo cultivation started in Bengal in 1777.
• Indigo was in high demand worldwide.
• European planters enjoyed a monopoly over indigo and they forced Indian farmers to grow indigo by signing fraudulent deals with them.
• The cultivators were forced to grow indigo in place of food crops.

Answer 2

Answer:

The indigo cultivators in Bengal were forced to grow indigo on at least 25 per cent of the area under their holdings. The price which they got for their indigo was low. And they had to take loans to repay their previous loans. The indigo crops exhausted the soil fertility rapidly. After an indigo harvest, the land cannot be sown with another crop. All these circumstances lead to "The Blue Rebellion" which broke out in March 1859, which led to the collapse of indigo production in Bengal.
