Requirement to start

The Anfailzwang was the obligation of farmers , their products first to the landlord having to offer to cover its own needs. Originally, the obligation to start was intended to exclusively cover the landlords' own needs. The obligation to make an offer (obligation to offer or to apply) was an authoritative right of first refusal for the landlord .

This right was often abused by the landlords and the cheaply acquired agricultural products were resold at a profit (for-purchase). Farmers were only allowed to resell their own products after the landlord rejected the purchase.

The obligation to start was enforced by the landlords by means of deterrent penalties, whereby the landlord was also the highest court lord and could decide on the matter himself.

Similar legal institutions as the Anfailzwang were the

Tavern compulsion,
Mill compulsion and
the prohibition of booze .
