Hi9 Svenhauke,

The much improved machine part of the agricultural revolution was obviously part of the industrial revolution, the improvements increasing orders which then sparked further demands of improvements, a cycle that took quite a while, generations in fact; while overall some have described as the 'British Revolution' as opposed to the bloody French, being typically British far more peaceful though not without deadly riots and protests by Luddites etc, it was still far milder than the European social revolutions through 1848 etc.

The industrial revolution wasn't the social panacea that some have claimed for it, at least not in England, where the craft halls and their ideology and politics were perpetuated even up to the present in some places today.

the agricultural revolution consisted of the use of minerals to fertilize the land plus the use of machines. + the use of enhanced plants because of the technology of genetics. which resulted in a 4x efficency of agriculture, releasing about 75% of the population for industrial use

withhout the agricultural revolution there would have been no industrial revolution
