Agricultural Revolution

This video was about the development of mankind and how

agriculture helped develop mankind. Agriculture and production
of food began about 10,000 years ago. Hence, the world
population could not have grown without the agricultural
revolution. Without the development of agriculture, the modern
and urban society would not have developed. Early man hunted
fish, dug for nuts, and gathered crops. But today we take
everything for granted. However, instead of gathering, men and
woman cultivated the crops. The beginning of plants are
connected to climatic change, however some people in Alaska,
Africa, India still hunt for their food. Today's farmers are
descendents of previous settlers but since we have the
availability of products we take everything for granted. For
example, foods from different parts of the world and especially
canned foods. The early farmers would get the best grain and
plant them, this was serial cultivation. The introduction of
farming spread vastly, and then advanced into Europe. A variety
of animals were domesticated in different parts of the world such

as goats, sheep, donkey, pig, and horse. So the dimensions of

humans completely changed, once agriculture began people were
tied into their land. Agriculture made diversity as communities
spread. The demand of agriculture called for greater cooperation.

Overall, I thought this video was good. It explained how

crops were cultivated and planted and once agriculture got
started how people changed their ways. This video gave an
accurate understanding of principles on cultivation. Personally,
The Agricultural Revolution was an easy to understand and
descriptive video.
