The evolution of agriculture can be traced back to the last Ice Age. At the end of the Ice Age, the earth’s climate began to warm, and the glaciers began to melt. This melting of the glaciers created new land, which was perfect for agriculture. The first people tofarm this new land were the Natufians. The Natufians were able to cultivate crops and raise animals, which allowed them to take advantage of the new land.<\/p>\n

What events led to the Agricultural Revolution? <\/h2>\n

The Agricultural Revolution was a time period in the 18th century when new farming techniques and technologies led to a dramatic increase in food production. This period is also sometimes referred to as the “British Agricultural Revolution” because it largely took place in England.<\/p>\n

One of the most important inventions of the Agricultural Revolution was the seed drill, which was invented by British farmer Jethro Tull in the early 1700s. The seed drill allowed farmers to sow seeds in neat rows, rather than scattering them by hand. This made it much easier to keep track of crops and to ensure that they received an adequate amount of water and sunlight.<\/p>\n
