Question

when was corn law passed in Britain? what was its main objective?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The Corn Laws were a series of statutes enacted between 1815 and 1846 which kept corn prices at a high level. This measure was intended to protect English farmers from cheap foreign imports of grain following the end of the Napoleonic Wars.

Answer 2

The corn law was passed in 1815.

1. Corn law is a law regarding tax, tariffs, and imports passed in Britain in favor of the people who owned land in Britain.

2. The corn law was passed by the Tory government of Lord Liverpool in 1815.

3. It was a law completely in favor of Britain. It was passed to protect the British agriculturists of steep competition that was external to Britain, that is in outside countries.

4. Corn law abolished the imports of food grains and corn which would increase the demand for agricultural products in Britain itself.

5. The law was passed to safeguard the British agriculturists, landowners, and farmers from cheap external imports. Abolition of imports would make the demand high for the agricultural products that were available in Britain itself.
