During the 1770s, Arthur Young dismissed demesne farming as a source of income for Irish landlords, and instead he observed how such farms were geared towards supplying domestic requirements. This article provides a more nuanced consideration of demesne farming during the first half of the eighteenth century through a case study of the example belonging to the Tipperary estate of Daniel Ryan of Inch from 1738 to 1756. It will be shown that this farm acted as an important source of income for its owner, while also highlighting the responsiveness of the farming practices at Inch to price signals and changing market conditions.

Inch 的直辖领农场，1738–56 年

在 1770 年代，亚瑟·杨 (Arthur Young) 不认为直辖农业是爱尔兰地主的收入来源，而转而观察此类农场如何满足国内需求。本文通过对 1738 年至 1756 年间属于英奇的 Daniel Ryan 的蒂珀雷里庄园的案例进行案例研究，对 18 世纪上半叶的直辖农业进行了更细致的考虑。其所有者的重要收入来源，同时也突出了 Inch 的农业实践对价格信号和不断变化的市场条件的响应。
