Agriculture vs. Hunting By, Harsha Nori
Advantages of Hunter-Gatherers Hunter-gatherers would not have to rely on soil fertility and rain patterns to get food. Sometimes there is plenty of prey, therefore allowing easy hunting. Pretty balanced diet.
Disadvantages of Hunter-Gatherers Food is constantly moving. Sometimes food is scarce. Hunting is a major time commitment, so societies cannot develop other technology.
Advantages of Agriculture For the most part, there is a constant food supply.  Less time is spent on gathering more food, so more time can be used for new things. More food is grown, so there can be a higher population.
Disadvantages of Agriculture Food supply is directly related to rain patterns and soil fertility. During a drought, farming would be a non-reliable food source. Un-balanced diet.
Conclusion I believe that agriculture is a much more reliable source of food. Even with its disadvantages, it’s much more reliable and less effort is used to gather food, so more time can be used for other improvements. VS.
