The 18th-century Agricultural Revolution significantly transformed agricultural practices, leading to increased food production and efficiency. Innovations such as crop rotation, selective breeding, and the introduction of new crops, like potatoes and corn, significantly boosted yields. These changes resulted in surplus food, supporting population growth and urbanization as people migrated to cities in search of work. The revolution also laid the groundwork for the Industrial Revolution by encouraging innovations and creating a labor force that could transition from agricultural work to factory jobs, thereby altering the socio-economic landscape of Europe and beyond.
