The History of Farming

Over 10,000 years ago, humans began to cultivate and raise crops. Back then, a single farm could maybe grow enough food to feed a family and perhaps a little more. Today, a farmer in a developed country can grow enough food to feed hundreds of people. The path from agriculture’s ancient roots to a modern mechanized farm wasn’t a straight line, and it relied on several major innovations throughout history.
