  1. Don't know what the first farmers called it, but reaping and sowing grains was probably the first deliberate attempt at controlling food production.

    Gatherers in hunter gatherer groups probably noticed that certain seeds seemed to appear at regular intervals in the same locations and returned each new season to exploit that fact.  Eventually, someone noticed that one seed left on the ground produced a plant that produced many seeds and decided to try and reproduce that miracle.  When they realized that they could save seed and produce more seeds at a later date, agriculture was born.

    It is likely that this happened in different places with different grains as humans spread across the planet and found different grain crops.


  2. was long long long time ago..... no one remember it

  3. plot and pray

  4. It was called slash and burn. The trees in a small plot of land were cut down as well as any brush growing there. After a period of time to allow the trees to dry, the plot was all burned off.  

    The natural fertility along with the minerals added by the ashes grew pretty good crops for a year or two.  Then the area was abandoned and a new area was slashed and burned.

  5. Animal husbandry

  6. Do you mean other than agriculture?
