wild plants don't provide enough food for large populations
compared to say ancient times
Decrease*
when agriculture was firmly established
increase
meat consumption dropped when we started farming plants in large amounts
Are diets are like only 10% meat
@Machinimal hunter gatherer societies didnt *have* large populations
they did when they started farming cattle
Well you cant have agriculture without domesticated farm aninals
yes you can????
Without shit you cant grow.shit
You cant
literally not that hard to grow food
without animals
you dont *need* draft animals
Literally werent able to
they had large enough populations to have long distance trade and large stone structures
they just make it easier
and there were huge bonepiles dug up
@ArmouredHeart animal flesh was and continues to be the primary source of calories for humans. We owe our big brains to gathering shellfish and cracking open bones for marrow and fat, the value of which was improved by mastery of fire and discovery of cooking.
you furrow the ground
you toss in seeds
I mean unless youre a yam farmer in arrica
animals are not required
of refuse from cattle and hunted animals
draft animals increase efficiency
Im glad youre not a farmer lol
modern farmers dont use draft animals either?
You cant produce the food we need without aninal.shit and fertilizers
Yeah until recently
if you consider high tech farms they dont even use reapers
