Excerpt from David Ricardo: A Centenary Estimate

The result was an intense struggle on the part of the Eng lish agriculturist and his sympathizers to preserve the home market by maintaining the domestic value Of grain at what was vaguely term-cd a remunerative price. This struggle was aggravated by mistaken protective legislation tending at times to a domestic glut, and it was made vehemently articulate by the social and political prominence of the land owning class. Herein lies the explanation of that intense sensitiveness on the part Of parliament and public opinion to agricultural complaints, that constitutes the agricultural fer ment pervading the economic life of the half century.
