Description:
The
technology of agriculture is one of the fundamental technologies that
raised human civilization from a few hundred hunter/gatherers globally
to being able to support millions. It is the idea that instead of
simply allowing the ecosystem to produce whatever it will and taking
what you need from it, one should actively alter what it produces so
that it will be what one needs. The main method of doing this is
to plant desirable crops and then tend them so that they produce more
than the plants otherwise would be able to produce.
