Agricultural History Review

By documenting the legislative history of the Corn Laws from 1670 and using previously unused data to calculate annual ad valorem equivalents (AVE) for most years from 1 8 14 , it is possible to establish several important facts about British wheat protection. Statutory protection was only significant for a few years after 1 8 15 , the decline starting in the 1820s and continuing beyond the famous 'repeal' in 1 8 4 6. The level of protection prior to 1 8 4 6 was, for many years, much lower than previous accounts have suggested. In fact, from 1 8 2 8 the Corn Laws were specifically designed to allow grain to enter Britain at low levels of duty, and prohibitive duties were the exception rather than the norm.

1846 and All That: The rise and fall of British wheat protection in the nineteenth century

1846年及其后：19世纪英国小麦保护政策的兴衰

Stinting – the numerical limitation of grazing rights – was one of the primary methods for governing livestock numbers on common land in England. This paper charts the growth of stinting, explores the reasons behind its introduction, and considers the role of stinting in sustainable management of grazing reserves and in the evolution of concepts of property rights on common land since the medieval period. It is argued that growing pressure on grazing was only one driver behind the introduction of stinting and that some stinted rights in upland northern England originated in agistment on private forest pastures. The paper also considers the consequences of stinting, one of which was to convert a common right of pasture into a more adaptable, transferable and potentially profitable commodity, which could be severed from the holding to which it originally belonged, breaking a link which lay at the heart of the law on commons.

Since the eighteenth century the rabbit has occupied an ambivalent position in the countryside. Not only were they of sporting value but they were also valued for their meat and pelt. Attitudes to the rabbit altered though over the first half of the century, and this paper traces their redefinition as vermin. By the 1930 s, it was appreciated that wild rabbits were Britain's most serious vertebrate pest of cereal crops and grassland and that their numbers were having a significant effect on agricultural output. Government took steps to destroy rabbits from 1938 and launched campaigns against them during wartime, when rabbit was once again a form of meat. Thereafter government attitudes to the rabbit hardened, but it was not until the mid-1950s that pestilence in the form of a deadly virus, myxomatosis, precipitated an unprecedented decline in their population.
