Peasants received land to cultivate, protection, and the right to live on the estate from the feudal lord. In return, they provided labor, a portion of their crops, and various dues or services to the lord. This mutual dependence created a hierarchical structure where the lord maintained control over the land and the peasant population, while the peasants relied on the lord for their livelihood and security.
