What where the disadvantage of the open field systems
lakkis [162]

Answer:

Explanation:

Field Music are a Mercury Prizenominated[1] English rock band from Sunderland, Tyne and Wear, England, that formed in 2004, particularly active in the Wearside region.[2] The band's core consists of brothers David Brewisand Peter Brewis, with Andrew Moore occasionally featured as keyboardist. Their line-up has at times featured members of both Maxïmo Park and The Futureheads.

The drawbacks of the open-field system are as follows.

(1) Under utilisation of land due to remaining idle.

(2) Farmers slaughtered their animals in autumn and used to salt their meat for consumption in winter as there used to be no hay during the colder season.

(3) The farming land of families and individuals lay scattered all around. Hence, reaching a field took much time and was tedious.

(4) Paths and cart tracks led to land wastage significantly.

(5) After ploughing a field keeping them idle was a wastage of labour, resources and time.

(6) Diseases were rampant due to the common grazing ground of livestock.
