Answer:
Around 12,000 years ago, the world had started becoming warmer. This led to an increase in plants, trees, grasslands and overall greenery. Because of this, animals which survived on grass like deer, goat, sheep, etc. started increasing in number.
Humans were still gatherers – they would gather the food that they could eat. As the greenery increased, people started observing the places where edible plants could be found, how seeds broke off stalks, fell on the ground, and new plants sprouted from them.
While it is not possible to find out exactly how we started farming, most people believe that this gradual process allowed humans to start planting the seeds they wanted and growing them for food. This was the beginning of farming.
Slowly, animals started coming to the places where humans grew crops to eat the grass. People started allowing animals that were not aggressive to come and stay near them like sheep, goat, etc. because these animals would provide milk, meat and some would even carry a load.
Wild animals would attack these animals for food. However, humans started protecting them from these attacks and soon became herders. Interesting fact: The first animal to be tamed by man was a dog.
