Whereas decades earlier, Native Americans had been able to trade foodstuffs which they had grown and captured for trade goods, colonists had learned to farm grain and raise livestock for themselves; furs (caught and prepared by natives or frontiersmen) became the new primary trade good. Tensions arose because native croplands were attractive not only to the colonists' generally free-roving pigs (which damaged their crops), but also as easily switched to tobacco. Because colonists' farming methods drained fields of nutrients (both because of erosion and because fertilization was rarely practiced or effective for more than another century), new fields constantly were sought. Furthermore, more emigrants were surviving their indentures, and thus wanted to establish themselves with their new skills as tobacco farmers. In Virginia's <a href="/wiki/Northern_Neck" title="Northern Neck">Northern Neck</a> (a relatively undeveloped area in the watersheds of the <a href="/wiki/Rappahannock_River" title="Rappahannock River">Rappahannock River</a> and <a href="/wiki/Potomac_River" title="Potomac River">Potomac Rivers</a> between cleared and farmed land in southeastern Virginia and cleared and farmed land in eastern Maryland), rather than rent farmland from their former employers, freed indentured servants and other European immigrants began clearing and squatting on land which <a href="/wiki/The_Crown" title="The Crown">the Crown</a> had reserved for Native Americans since 1634.<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> However, with the <a href="/wiki/Stuart_Restoration" title="Stuart Restoration">Restoration of the English monarchy</a> following the <a href="/wiki/English_Civil_War" title="English Civil War">English Civil War</a>, fewer people chose to emigrate from England to flee that internal conflict. Between the <a href="/wiki/First_Anglo-Dutch_War" title="First Anglo-Dutch War">First Anglo-Dutch War</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Second_Anglo-Dutch_War" title="Second Anglo-Dutch War">Second Anglo-Dutch War</a>, the Crown adopted <a href="/wiki/Navigation_Acts" title="Navigation Acts">Navigation Acts</a>, in particular a new rule that tobacco grown in the colonies could only be sold to English merchants and shipped to England on English ships. Since much colonial tobacco was low quality and usually sold to Dutch traders or to the Continental market, English merchants had an oversupply of tobacco by the mid-1600s and its price plummeted. Thus, while the Dutch had paid three pence per pound for tobacco and a small planter could grow 1000 pounds in a year, English traders would only pay a half penny per pound or less.<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Virginia's governor, <a href="/wiki/William_Berkeley_(governor)" title="William Berkeley (governor)">William Berkeley</a>, had taken office and sailed to the colony shortly before the English Civil War began, and remained in office or with significant power for about 35 years. Berkeley had traveled back to England to fight (unsuccessfully) for King Charles before returning to the colony in 1645 after <a href="/wiki/Indian_massacre_of_1622" title="Indian massacre of 1622">Natives had massacred settlers in 1644</a>. He led military forces which captured the chief <a href="/wiki/Opechancanough" title="Opechancanough">Opechancanough</a> and suppressed the revolt. Berkeley also had a royal monopoly of the important beaver fur trade, and charged fur traders in the interior a license fee for bringing furs which they or Native Americans gathered and which the traders then sold to Berkeley's company. Berkeley grew unpopular after the Dutch were defeated, in part because the tobacco boom had ended, as well as because of the conflict and more personal reasons. Like King Charles, Berkeley refused to call for legislative elections for more than a decade during the English Civil Wars (during part of which Puritan-leaning <a href="/wiki/Richard_Bennett_(governor)" title="Richard Bennett (governor)">Richard Bennett</a>, <a href="/wiki/Edward_Digges" title="Edward Digges">Edward Digges</a> and <a href="/wiki/Samuel_Mathews_(colonial_Virginia_governor)" title="Samuel Mathews (colonial Virginia governor)">Samuel Mathews</a> had replaced him as the colony's chief executive during the "Long Assembly"). He also issued large land grants to favorites (of 2000, 10,000 or even 30,000 acres) and was extremely wealthy compared to small planters (owning <a href="/wiki/Green_Spring_Plantation" title="Green Spring Plantation">Green Spring Plantation</a> outside Jamestown, as well as 5 houses in the colonial capital which he mostly rented out, 400 cattle and 60 horses, as well as several hundred sheep, valuable household silver and nearly a thousand pounds sterling worth of grain in storage).<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Berkeley's favorites often commanded the local militia in various counties, as well as charged <a href="/wiki/Quitrent" class="mw-redirect" title="Quitrent">quitrents</a> to smaller farmers who cleared and farmed the land on their vast estates. In 1662 Governor Berkeley warned English officials that the low tobacco prices did not even cover freight and customs charges, much less provide a subsistence income for small farmers, who grew discontent, and in 1667 several weather events cause the tobacco crop to fail. Nonetheless, after the Restoration of the monarchy, the king granted English-based favorites the <a href="/wiki/Northern_Neck_Proprietary" title="Northern Neck Proprietary">Northern Neck Proprietary</a> and the right to 11 years worth of quitrents in arrears (which seemed like additional taxes).
