Economy in the medieval period was mainly dependent on agriculture. Farming methods improved with introduction of tools.
A big part of the agricultural produce was given to Kings and Landlords as land revenue. Farmers could not sell their crops directly in the market. This job was done by middlemen.
Another evil which ruined the economy was Jagir system.

Trade and commerce saw a revival during this time. Urban centres also flourished after a considerable period of decline. Inland trade increased in the 13th and 14th centuries as a result connecting these urban centres came up, which also facilitated trade. There were a large number of trading classes and commercial practices were of high standard and integrity.
