To learn more about this topic, start your googling with these keywords:

  • Food: a nutritious substance we eat or drink to maintain life and growth
  • Domestication: a multi-generational process in which one group of organisms manages the reproduction and care of, and changes, another type of organism, typically to secure a more predictable supply of resources (e.g. humans with food crops and animals)
  • Centers of origin: the locations where humans domesticated a lot of crops and animals for food, often where lots of wild relatives lived
  • Centers of diversity: a more recent concept recognizing that high concentrations of food plant and animal varieties and related wild species aren’t always located where the plants and animals were initially domesticated
