i) In the 16th century price of wool increased. This prompted rich farmers to expand wool production to increase profits. For this purpose they were keen to enclose lands.

(ii) To improve sheep breeding and ensure good feed enclosures become necessary. They therefore began to enclose common land and grow hedges around their holdings to keep out the poor.

(iii) These enclosures were usually created by individual efforts and not supported by the state or church.

Answer:

However, in the 1700s, the British parliament passed legislation, referred to as the Enclosure Acts, which allowed the common areas to become privately owned. This led to wealthy farmers buying up large sections of land in order to create larger and more complex farm

Factors which encouraged the system:

(i) Growing urban population in England increased the demand of foodgrains.

(ii) The price of wool increased leading rich farmers to expand wool production to earn profits which led enclosures.
