Following a 1586 famine Elizabeth's Privy Council issued orders to justices of the peace dictating how they were to respond to food scarcity in their communities. The sweeping highly detailed orders listed the quantities of grain permitted each family and controlled prices for any excess put on the market. Though many other monarchs had regulated grain markets after crop failures the practice expanded significantly under Elizabeth. Along with other social reforms this provided the foundation for her overhaul of the poor laws in 1601.

A collection of orders to justices of the peace and other overseers of the poor dictating how they were to respond to food scarcity in their communities. As the proclamation itself notes this was largely an expansion of similar orders and reforms to the poor laws made by Elizabeth I and James I. The practice of grain market regulation after crop failures had expanded significantly under Elizabeth in 1586. Among other requirements the orders mandated that corn be sold in an open market and that justices of the peace be present to ensure fair prices and prevent hoarding.
