Establishing the etymological origin of the word agriculture takes us to Latin because in that language is where the starting point of the birth of the aforementioned is found. Specifically, we can see that it comes from the word farming<\/em>, which is made up of the sum of two parts: the term agri <\/em>which is synonymous with \"crop field\" and the concept culture <\/em>which can be translated as \"cultivated or cultivated\".<\/p>\n

The farming<\/strong> is the tillage or cultivation of the land<\/strong> and includes all jobs<\/strong> related to soil treatment and planting of vegetables. Agricultural activities are usually aimed at the food production<\/strong> and the obtaining of vegetables, fruits, vegetables and cereals<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"farming\"Agriculture involves environmental transformation<\/strong> to meet the needs of man<\/strong>. This ability is what differentiates the human being from the rest of the living beings.<\/p>\n

The emergence of agriculture was a key step in the development of humanity. Historians claim that, in the period Neolithic<\/strong>, the man went from hunting, fishing and gathering to agricultural and livestock activities. The wheat<\/strong> and the barley<\/strong> they would have been the first cultivated plants.<\/p>\n

It is believed that people<\/strong> They began to develop agriculture from certain climatic changes that made the temperature more temperate and the scarcity of hunting and gathering food in certain regions.<\/p>\n

If at that time agriculture became a fundamental economic activity for the population's subsistence, the same thing happened in other historical periods as would be the case, for example, of Ancient Rome. And it is that at that time it was committed to the cultivation of legumes, cereals and vegetables. All this through the use mainly of the well-known Roman plow, which was pulled by oxen.<\/p>\n

It is important to highlight that at this time different techniques and systems were born and developed that became fundamental within agriculture. This would be the case with various composting methods, oil presses and the fallow system. A term is with which it comes to express that a specific land is not cultivated during one or two vegetative cycles with the clear objective that later, when it is sown again, it is in the best possible conditions.<\/p>\n

With agriculture, the availability of food grew and the number of population increased throughout the world. On the other hand, he assumed that societies<\/strong> become sedentary and begin to consider private ownership of real estate.<\/p>\n

In addition to all the above, it must be emphasized that there are many types of agriculture, among which dry land agriculture stands out, which is carried out without water since the land takes advantage of its groundwater and that of rain, and of irrigated water, in which the farmer does add water to the field.<\/p>\n

Today, agricultural workers make use of the technology<\/strong> and genetic engineering to improve soil and crop productivity. Even the science<\/strong> has made the seeds more resistant to pests and can adapt to different climates and soils.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n\n
