Farming as a Way of life
Farming often involved more work than hunting and gathering
Agriculture provided a steady, more reliable food supply
Often a surplus could be traded for other resources, or stored for later use

Summary
After the last Ice Age, people developed agriculture
By growing crops and keeping livestock, people created surplus food
With extra food, groups of people could stay in one place and support more people
They could also share food with other groups
They could even trade for goods not found near their settlements
This trade was an important step toward building larger,
more advanced societies
