Answer:

The peasants had no hope of making profits of farmlands

Step-by-step explanation:

The peasants where the poorest in the hierarchy of citizens during the Medieval period in Europe they couldn't own lands but they could farm for others and make a little profit before the Feudal system of government.

They were worse off during the Feudal system of Government because they practically work for the Manor and pay almost what ever sales or produce they make from the Farmland to the Manor/Lord leaving them with very little or nothing as profit
