Brief explanation

Grange management

Farming method: mainly self-cultivation with a small amount of hired help.

The so-called farmland means that the cultivated land area reaches a certain scale. A farming method that adopts closed management. This method is generally combined with animal husbandry.

Tenancy type

To put it simply, land ownership belongs to the landlord, and is then leased to farmers for farming. The farmers need to pay the landlord a certain amount of grain as a rental fee. The landowner should bear the tax on the land.

Yeoman farming

The farming method in which the land is completely owned by the farmer and he is responsible for farming is called home farming

Hired labor style

Land It is owned by the landlord. Because there are few family members, he hires others to help him engage in certain production labor. This method is generally divided into long-term labor and short-term labor. Long-term labor is long-term employment, and short-term labor is short-term employment.

Among the above four methods, the tenancy type and the labor type require the signing of a contract. Party B (sharecroppers and hired workers) actually has personal freedom, but the prerequisite is that it does not violate the contract and harm the direct interests of Party A (the so-called landlords and rich peasants).
