These Corn Laws restricted the import of corn.
These laws were important during the grain shortage caused b Briain's growing population and by the blockades imposed by the Napoleonic Wars.
Due to an increase in the population, the demand for food grains increased and as a consequence, prices of food grains also increased.
Under pressure from landed groups, the government also restricted the import of corn.
