Question

why do 'corn law' was abolished

Answer 1

The growth of population increased the demand of food grains in Britain. The landed aristocracy pressurised the government to restrict the import of corn into the country. These laws came to be known as the Corn Laws.

The promulgation of the Corn Laws further pushed up the prices of food grains. The industrialists and urban dwellers were unhappy with the Corn Laws which resulted in the government abolishing the laws.

After the abolition of the Corn Laws, imported food flooded the British markets. British agriculture was not able to compete with imports. This resulted in the abandonment of cultivation in many agricultural fields of Britain. Many farmers migrated to urban centers in search of employment opportunities.
