Imagine a family of farmers in the Neolithic Age. They are a multi-generational family living together on a large farm. They hav
e bees, chickens, and other animals and crops that keep them fed. They have several shelters that are sturdy. Last year, however, floods came and took many of their large animals and rained out their crops. Some of the family died from starvation. They are replanting this year. What cost and benefit of farming is shown in this situation?
A Farming leaves people vulnerable to attack, but needs less land than hunting and gathering.
B. Successful harvest not guaranteed due to weather, but more people can cooperate to build better shelters.
C.Herding animals and planting crops takes a lot of energy, but farming gave new sources of material for clothing.
D.Nomads might come to steal food or animals, but food surpluses lead to specialization of workers.
The cost and benefit of farming show in this situation is that successful harvest not guaranteed due to weather, but more people can cooperate to build better shelters. People are still subject to the volubity of nature, but cooperation helps people to survive and adapt in a better way to the environment, thus assuring the survival of the specie.
