A quick definition of gavelbred:

Term: GAVELBRED

Definition: Gavelbred is an old-fashioned way of paying rent. Instead of using money, people used to pay their landlords with bread, corn, or other types of food. This type of rent is called rent payable in kind.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Gavelbred (gav-uhl-bred) is a historical term used to describe rent that was paid in the form of bread, corn, or other provisions instead of money.

Example: In medieval times, tenants would often pay their landlords gavelbred instead of money. For example, a tenant might owe their landlord a certain amount of wheat or barley each year instead of paying a fixed amount of money.

Explanation: The example illustrates how gavelbred was used as a form of rent payment in the past. Instead of paying money, tenants would provide their landlords with a portion of their crops or other provisions. This was a common practice in agricultural societies where money was scarce, and goods were often used as a form of currency.
