Moreno is noted for sanctioning the abolition of the agricultural practice of concertaje,[3] which was a system of contracted debt that held Indian hacienda laborers called conceirtos under threat of imprisonment.[4] His administration was also considered a factor in the public disenchantment that led to the Revolucion Juliana.[5]
