What did the first farmers learn to grow and raise during the ice ages

Answer 1

The first farmers learned to grow and raise different kind of crops in different parts of the world. In the north eastern region, the farmers were able to grow and raise wheat, barley and peas. Cereals and figs were known to be grown in Syria during the time of the ice age. In China rice and millet farming become popular during the same period. People were starting to settle down into small groups and stopped roaming about as nomads. This was one important reason behind the cultivation of crops.
