For food probably

Answer 2

The reason people in those days accumulated grain

Explanation:

• For food and seed, grains had to be kept.
• The primary goal of grain storage for small farmers is to assure family food supplies.
• Farm storage can also be used to save money for a future cash need, or for barter exchange or gift-giving.
• Grain is also stored for seed and as a component of domestic businesses such as beer brewing and meal preparation.
• Farmers can sell their grain at any time after maturity (sale of stand grain).
• The advantage of selling at harvest or before harvest is that farmers can save the cost and time needed to store and prepare for harvest.
• Transportation, threshing, winnowing and drying are transferred to other levels of the marketing chain, allowing farmers to freely handle the next harvest or other agricultural or non-agricultural activities
