The advancements in agricultural technology in Sumer primarily led to more grain allowing for Sumer to trade more, growing the economy. This increase in agricultural productivity not only provided a surplus of food but also facilitated trade with neighboring regions. The ability to produce and store more grain created surpluses that could be exchanged for other goods, thereby enhancing Sumer's economic prosperity and promoting the development of a complex economy with specialization and trade networks.
