Origins of Agriculture: the stepping stone for civilization

Most people do not highly appreciate farmers and agriculture. After all, there is no "visible" relationship between rural life and city life. As long as food is on the table or on the market, agriculture is not important to most people. However, few people think school, sports, movies and society are impossible without agriculture. Agriculture is an important science that contributes to the earliest solutions and enables humans to grow. Agriculture began all over the world at almost the same time, agriculture was the beginning of contemporary civilization.

"The discovery of agriculture is the first step towards a civilized life" (Arthur Keith) Civilization begins with agriculture, agriculture is an essential part of our lives. Civilization brings knowledge, knowledge brings technology, and technology brings chemicals and pesticides to "improve" our world. "Duty to endure" was taken from Rachel Carson's "Spring of Silence", a passionate and wonderful work on civilized efforts to combat pests and insects. These effects include damage to the environment, changes in the genetic structure of animals and plants, water pollution, and anxiety about delicate natural balance.

Our Olmec civilization is based on the development of our scientific approach to agriculture where we brought corn. Corn is brought about by human intervention. There are steps to develop agricultural science. The development of each step has brought us closer to building civilization. This is a long process (8,000 to 9,000). In order to cultivate corn more efficiently, our ancestors need to know the best time to grow corn and the best time to harvest corn. In order to do this, we must develop the concept of time. To do this, we must keep records based on the seasonal cycle, the movement of the sky at night and day, and the scientific observation of the nature of the universe.

The Neolithic era means "a new stone", but agriculture was the best achievement of this age. Civilization began to get smaller. Early agriculture tends to link only small groups. These groups also settle along the river, a reliable, predictable source of water. Over time, families usually work on the same land for generations and form the concept of possession. Ancient mortar and abrasives excavated in the large mounds of Iran's Zagros mountain range show that people are grinding wheat and barley about 11,000 years ago. Grass peas, wild wheat, wild barley and lentils were discovered throughout the site, including some of the earliest earlier known samples. This is much farther than most places known for early agriculture. These discovered stone statues are as if the civilization was built on their own ruins or the buildings of the earth were worn down and destroyed as if the land was rebuilt due to changes in demand.
