The performance of the disintegration of smallholder economy

First of all, we have to understand what is the small peasant economy, the traditional small peasant economy is a man and woman weaving, self-sufficiency, most of the production and means of subsistence can rely on their own ability to manufacture, only need to exchange with the outside world can not produce their own materials (such as salt, iron, etc.). When the small peasant economy began to disintegrate, the most important reason was that natural disasters led to a lack of harvest, and the displaced people flocked to the towns and cities to exchange their labor for wages, no longer relying on the original men's plowing and weaving for their economic resources. At this time, the small peasant economy is considered to be disintegrated.
