Advantages
Peasants could supplement their agricultural incomes
Take advantage of winter months when farming was impossible.
2.Merchants could avoid the higher wages and often demanding regulations of urban labor.
Easier to reduce the number of workers when the economy was bad
3.Merchants could acquire capital, which would later play a part in funding industrialization itself.
Peasants acquired future skills.
4.Young people could start separate households earlier, thus contributing to population growth.
Disadvantages
When demand rose [which it did in the 18 century] this system proved inefficient.
Merchant-capitalists found it difficult to induce peasant-workers to increase their output.
This dilemma eventually led to the factory system
All the workers were concentrated in one place under the supervision of a manager.
Water or steam power could easily be applied there.
