Question: What was the impact of technology on food availability?
Answer: With the great changes in technology, there was rapid urbanization and industrialization in Britain along with population growth in the 18th century. This led to an increase in the demand for agricultural products. This implied that food grains could now be imported at a cheaper price. With the increase in industrialization, people started to receive a higher income which leads to an increase in the consumption of food. This, in turn, leads to an increase in the exports of food production in Eastern Europe, Russia, and the USA.
