Chapter 9 in Agricultural Markets from Theory to Practice, 1999, pp 191-217 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Historical studies of the marketing of agricultural produce in England have received renewed attention since the 1970s.1 One can see this as part of the wider interest in the modernisation of England with its implications for changes in the structure of society and its exchange relationships. Much of the historical work has been concentrated on the grain market, particularly that for wheat, and one can trace here several main lines of analytical attack.
