Answer 1

One effect of the British landlord system in Ireland in the mid-1800s and in India in the early 1900s was that these landlord systems "(1) contributed to famine and suffering," since there was not an adequate regulation of supply and demand. 

Answer 2

Answer;

-Contributed to famine and suffering

Explanation;

-The Land tenure system created a kind of landlordism in the areas where it had been planted by Cornwallis. The landlords, in their turn, were entrusted with the responsibility of collecting rent from the cultivators. Thus the zamindars were used to act as intermediaries between the cultivators and the state.

- On any failure to discharge their obligations, the estates of the zamindars were liable to be sold by the government for the realization of their dues so as to establish the principle of survival of the fittest through the active market in land.
