What were the effects of agriculture on early man?
One of the biggest effects was that people depended more on thier crops than migrating from place to place because crops provided more food for people than just looking for food. People began to stay in one place and tend to their crops. They also formed villages. They also had to build walls around their villages to protect thier cropland from other villages. People not only domesticated plants, but they also domesticated animals. Some people became nomads and migrated frrom place to place to get food for their animnals, like shephards. Some people had to burn wild plants to create more farmland for their crops. That resulted less food for their livestock. Agriculture also effected the population. When crops failed, the population decreased, and when the crops thrived and prospered, the population of the town or village increased.
