The Invention Of Agriculture

It is not possible to tell the exact date and beginning of agriculture based on available data. But agriculture, known as a vital and important science, dates back tens of thousands of (10-12 thousand) years. Known as the first living creature in history, people met their survival needs (nutrition, shelter, clothing, etc.) from hunting and gathering before they settled down. With the passage of many years, as a result of the increase in knowledge and skills in humans, the process of growing plants from the soil and domesticating animals has developed.

According to the archaeological evidence; these changes and developments show that they occurred almost more than 10 thousand years ago. About 11,500 years ago, people gradually learned how to grow grains and root crops and settled down on farming. The difficulty in determining the exact date of agriculture is that the existence of hunter-gatherer societies dates back tens of thousands of years before the invention of writing. This makes it difficult to tell us exactly when agriculture emerged.
