Farming leaves people vulnerable to attack, but needs less land than hunting and gathering and allows for more permanent settlements.
Imagine a family of farmers in the Neolithic Age. They are a multi-generational family living together on a large farm. They have bees, chickens, and other animals and crops that keep them fed. They have several shelters that are sturdy. Last year, however, floods came and took many of their large animals and rained out their crops. Some of the family died from starvation. They are replanting this year.
