Question

What type of agriculture was grown in egypt?

Answer 1

The Nile River helped farming and agriculture in Egypt.  It helped by providing silt whenever there was a flood. The Nile River floods between June and October.  Crops are usually harvested during the spring.  The depth of the flood was 45 feet.  After floods, there would be a fertile strip along the Nile river that was 12 miles wide.  There, the Egyptians would plant and grow things such as vegetables and fruits.  The Nile River is the longest river in the world.  Farmers sophisticated irrigation systems and used dikes to maximize the use of the Nile River.  The Nile River helped the Egyptians by supplying water for the farmers and their family.

    Farming brought people together.  During harvest season, everyone was made to gather the crops together.  Economy was based on wheat and grains.  The economy grew stronger because of irrigation.  Irrigation led to an increased food supply.  Irrigation helped water dry lands with streams, canals, or pipes.  Farmers planned for the seasonal flooding.  They also used wooden plows led by a pair of oxen, but by 2800 BC, they learned how to make bronze tools.  They used tools made of flint to cut wheat.  They threw seed into the ground to grow fruit and vegetables.  Farmers led farm animals loose to trample seeds into soil.
