Farmers lost their independence to shopkeepers and merchants primarily due to economic dependency. As agriculture became more commercialized, farmers often needed credit and supplies, which shopkeepers and merchants provided, leading them into debt and reliance on these businesses.

This shift diminished their autonomy and ability to negotiate favorable terms for their goods.
