[edit] really big missing bits here
There is now considerable, if not overwhelming, evidence that the earliest use of many agricultural techniques was in the New World of New Guinea. In addition, several of the most important food crops (by quantity if nothing else) originated in these areas (maize, tomatos, potatoes, ...), in SE Asia (oranges, chickens), Central Asia (apples...), etc. This timeline needs rather urgently to be corrected. ww 03:54, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Need expert attention
World was expecting massive food shortage about 40 years back due to population explosion. But technological innovations avoided food shortage. Green revolution in countries like India & China avoided food shortage. But none of these achivements is appearing in this article. --Indianstar 14:30, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Mehrgarh, Mehrgarh, Mehrgarh
Too much attention to a single site (Mehrgarh). Yes, developments on Indian subcontinent were important, but not so much as to dominate about 5 of the first 10 points of a Timeline of Agriculture... Timeline desperately needs proper credit to the Sumerian and Levantine originators of so many crops and techniques, and to the Andean inventors of terracing. JDG 12:56, 12 June 2007
[edit] Africa: Sahara, West Africa, Ethiopia missing
Africa is completely missing from this story (except for Egypt)!

[edit] Headings
This is a chronological list and therefore it should not have headings related to specific geological, political, or ethnic boundaries. This restricts an apropriate section to add an item from, for examples, the Americas or Africa. Witout objection, I would like to change the headings to reflect time periods. Otherwise there would need to be multiple timelines, one for each and every division. 172.162.147.110 (talk) 21:16, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
[edit] History of US West Coast Organic Food Movement
I just wanted to put this here from the history and let whoever created it know why... this timeline is supposed to be of agriculture and food technology's history in the entire world, and including only the most important events. If a very few of the following subjects have articles and are of more than local imporatance, they should be added back in. But list of all the farms and people involved in the U.S. west coast organic movement either needs a separate list (which you can create) or should stay out of this one.
