The patroon system was a landholding system established in the Dutch colony of New Netherland, where wealthy individuals, known as patroons, were granted large tracts of land along the Hudson River in exchange for settling the area with colonists. In return for the land, patroons were responsible for bringing in at least 50 settlers, who would farm the land and pay rents to the patroon. This system aimed to promote agricultural development and bolster the colony's economy but often led to tensions between the settlers and the landowners over land use and rights. Ultimately, the patroon system declined as the colony transitioned to British control in the late 17th century.
They did it to find native women and have sex with them non-stop because they thought the native nipples were so sexy but when they got there there were only homosexual natives and they stayed there because they got an erection from them.
The Patroon System was an attempt to make the colony grow, unfortunately it failed.

patroon
The patroon system was set up by the Dutch in order to attract wealthy investors to establish large land grants in the New World, particularly in New Netherland (present-day New York). It was a way to encourage rapid colonization and development of the area by offering economic incentives to investors who could bring in settlers and cultivate the land.
The patroon system brought "attracted" people to the colonies. The person in charge of one patroon (bringing over 50 people) would receive a large land grant and special privileges in hunting, fishing, and fur trading on the land.
