Corn laws and agriculture 1815



Following the end of the Napoleonic Wars in 1815, legislation was introduced to regulate the import of cereals in an attempt to maintain an adequate supply for consumers while providing a secure price for the producers. Cereals could not be imported into Britain until the domestic price reached eighty shillings a quarter. This price meant that cereals and bread were more expensive than they needed to be and this caused considerable agitation.Other aspects of agricultural production also caused popular concern - in 1834, six Dorset farmworkers - The Tolpuddle Martyrs - were transported to the colonies for seven years because they had taken an illegal oath to a labourers\' union.
