'''Agriculture''', also called '''farming''' or '''husbandry''', is the intentional growing of plants for human use. It is the cultivation of [[animal]]s, [[plant]]s, [[Fungus|fungi]], and other life forms for [[food]], [[fiber]], [[biofuel]], [[drug]]s and other products used to sustain and enhance human life.
    
Farming was punishment for Adam after the Fall, around 4000 B.C., as explained in the [[Book of Genesis]], chapter 3.  [[Civilization]]s based on agriculture then developed around 3000 B.C., and ever since most human populations have been dependent on agriculture by some 2,000 years ago. <ref>http://courses.washington.edu/anth457/agorigin.htm</ref>.
