Answer:

True

Explanation: In the 1700s, the British parliament passed legislation, referred to as the Enclosure Acts, which allowed the common areas to become privately owned.  This led to wealthy farmers buying up large sections of land in order to create larger and more complex farms.  Ultimately, this forced smaller farmers off of their land.  Having lost their way of life, many of these farmers went to local towns and cities in search of work.  This was important to the overall Industrial Revolution, because it helped create a system that created a large workforce for the factories and mines.
