An agricultural-based economy is an economy in which everything starts with how well agriculture in that society is. Such as in the Ancient Mesopotamian society in which a surplus caused by agriculture led to job specialization, which in turn led to more manufacturing, which led to more trade, which would then lead to a richer economy. But if the farming is not producing enough food, then more workers will have to work in agriculture which leads to less manufacturing/specialized jobs, which in turn leads to less trade, and then a poor-er economy.
