The ancient Egyptian farmers (as seen in the picture) used a small whip (most likely made from papyrus reeds) to move cows or bulls that were pulling a plow. After plowing they would either plant fig or olive trees. These trees would supply them with food and oils (olive oil). The food provided would create surpluses of food that would allow other natives to have other jobs. These jobs would then allow the Egyptians to produce more food faster and trade this food.
