By contrast, the agricultural mode of production typically occurs in a hierarchical social structure in which land ownership is individual, but that tends to be concentrated in the control of a very few, while the producers of agricultural products tend to be non-landowners who pay rent in the form of a portion of the annual yield from the land the landowners allow them to cultivate.
