The four-field crop rotation system was developed in the 18th century, primarily attributed to the agricultural innovations in Britain. One of the key figures in its development was Charles Townshend, who promoted this system in the early 1700s. The method involved rotating wheat, barley, turnips, and clover to improve soil fertility and increase crop yields. This practice significantly contributed to agricultural productivity during the Agricultural Revolution.

What was the crop lien?
Sharecroppers and tenant farmers who did not own the land they worked obtain supplies and food on credit from local merchants. They held a lien on the cotton crop and the merchants and landowners were the first ones paid from its sale. What was left over went to the farmer. The system ended in the 1940s as prosperity returned and many poor farmers moved permanently to cities and towns, where jobs were plentiful because of the war. The crop-lien system gave farmers a line of credit with a local merchant for supplies, with repayment to be made when a farmer's crop was sold. Crop-liens were fairly common in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
