The term agricultural is an adjective of a qualifying type that is commonly used to refer to all those things, activities or circumstances that have to do with the activity of cultivating and harvesting raw materials that can then be used by humans as food or for other purposes (such as shelter or clothing). The word agricultural comes from the word farming, that is, of the culture of cultivating and working the land, one of the most important activities for human subsistence already that allows him not to depend so directly on what nature offers him but to provide himself with his own food.
The Revolution Agricultural (also known as Neolithic Revolution) is considered one of the most important revolutions or advances of Humanity since it represented the passage of a stage in which the human being consumed only what he obtained through hunting, collection or fishing, to another higher stage in which he could slowly begin to produce his own food through sowing and harvesting. Agriculture (and with it everything agricultural) then becomes one of the initial kicks of
survival of the human being as being relatively independent of the environment that surrounds it (relatively because it still depends on it for the crops to grow).The agricultural will then be everything that is related to this primordial activity of the human being not only from its beginning, that is, through the preparation of the land for sowing, if not also until the time of harvest, the one in which the product or raw material it is ready to be cultivated and consumed or distributed by humans.
