• In the 17c, Europe relied on a very inefficient agricultural system to feed its population.
• Poor harvests led to higher grain prices and starvation

Advantages of the Putting-Out Advantages of the Putting-Out SystemSystem
1. Agents of textile manufacturers arranged for peasants to spin wool into thread
2. Peasants could supplement their agricultural incomes.
Take advantage of winter months when farming was impossible.
3. 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.
4. Merchants could acquire capital, which would later play a part in funding industrialization itself.
Peasants acquired future skills.
5. Young people could start separate households earlier, thus contributing to population growth.

Disadvantage of the Putting-Out Disadvantage of the Putting-Out System??System??
When demand rose [which it did in the 18c] 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.
