Long time ago natural food supply depreciated due to climatic changes that, amongst other adverse weather pattern changes, brought about droughts, and population also increased contributing to food shortages. There was also a need for trading as the scope of economy and need to accumulate wealth, e.g. in the form of quantities of domestic animals owned by an individual. Human beings started experimenting with ways to increase food supply and animal ownership, hence agriculture started.
