Answer 1

The factor that resulted in less available farmland and more privatized farmland during the Industrial Revolution is **enclosure**. Enclosure refers to the process of consolidating small landholdings into larger farms, which often led to the displacement of peasant farmers and a reduction in the amount of land available for communal use.
