There was emergence of new classes. The classes formed were landowners and working class. The wealthy landowners’ class were of wealthy people that had bought land and created agricultural estates while the working class were of the peasants that were evicted to work in the industries
There was unemployment as displaced peasants had no work and so they went to seek employment in the industries. There, not all got employed so some engaged in crime and other vices to survive

There was migration to other lands as the landless poor people were forced to drift away to work in the neighboring industrial towns while others worked in the enclosed estates. These people immigrated to new lands of USA, Canada, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand
The agrarian revolution led to industrialization due to the availability of raw materials for agricultural based industries such as textile and dairy industries
