Hunting and gathering actually took a lot of time. The men spent the entire day for find animals and many times didn't come across any (remember that they only had spears at the most for weapons). The women would look for roots, berries and other edibles while the children would haul water (sometimes 2 miles each way). The tribe would share all that they found that day. Often it would be the starchy roots that fed them. They then would pack up and travel, looking for a better place to stop.
With farming, there would be no walking looking for food. It was right close by growing in the fields. There was always some from the season before that could be cooked until that which was in the fields was ready. The same goes for having herds right near by to eat. The groups of people living close by grew from a few families to rather small villages.
