حبَّتَان .. تُسيطران عَلَى طَعَامِ الإِنْسَانِ حَبَّةٍ قَمْح وَ حَبَّة أرز

Two pills

They dominate human food: a grain of wheat and a grain of rice.


He asked me: What is the main food of the people of the earth? I said: From an animal or from a plant?
He said: From a plant?
I said: A grain of wheat.
He said: Rather, a grain of rice.
I said: More wheat is consumed by fewer people.
And rice is less, and more people eat it.

He said: Make it clear.

I said: The cultivated land on the surface of this planet is estimated at about 2,600 million acres, about half of which is used
In grain production, it gives people about 80 percent of the energy they spend in living.

About two-fifths of this area is cultivated with grains.
Or about 450 million acres, wheat is grown.

The area under rice cultivation is about 250 million
acres.

The output of wheat weighs more than what people produce of rice, but there are more rice eaters than wheat eaters on the surface of this earth.

-Which is oldest in history, a grain of wheat or a grain of rice?

My friend started asking: Which of them is the oldest creation?

I said: God knows that. But they are two hashish.
Man found them in the wilderness in ancient times. When he realized that the plant grew from love, he tried his luck and the plant came out. He began choosing the most suitable plant, and gave it love

(Wheat, like rice. They were two weeds. Human care came to them, and they became what you know today. These are pictures of wheat plants. The first three are of wild weeds, and the other pictures are of what has been grown from these weeds over the years and centuries.)

The fittest, and so on, until he came upon wheat that was not like the one he found the first time. And on cedar, not like the one he found the first time.

History books talk about wheat and say that most likely it began with man when he left the nomadic life behind food, for a life of agriculture and connection to the land. They estimate that this occurred in the Neolithic Period, from about 6,000 to 7,000 years ago. ‏

They mention that the Egyptians planted it before building the pyramids, and that Egypt cultivated the crops of the Greeks and Romans in its ancient times. Iraq planted it about 3,000 years before Christ, and China about 2,700 years ago.

History books say that Columbus transferred his agriculture to the New World when he discovered it.

This is sufficient for the provision of wheat as food for the people.

It appears that the rice is no less old. What is expected, of course, is that it is the food of hundreds of millions of people in Asia, and that Asia will be its first home.

Rice was mentioned for the first time in history in 2800 BC, when the Emperor of China issued an order to celebrate the cultivation of rice.

Other scholars trace the origin of rice to a plant grown in India in 3000 BC.

Rice cultivation moved to the south of Europe when the people of the East moved there.

- Producers of wheat and rice

As for wheat producers in our present era, the first is the United States, which has great credit for export. Like the states, Canada was one of the first exporters of wheat. Then Australia, France, Italy, Spain and Germany, all produce wheat. China, India, Turkey and Pakistan produce it. The Russians and Argentina produce it.

As for export, it depends on how much it is available
Earth every year.

For example, China imports wheat in 2017 due to poor yields due to drought. In a year the land is abundant and there is a lot of surplus from it.

Russia also imports from year to year and prepares to export, especially to those places afflicted by drought.

And rice, the countries that produce it most are China, India, Japan, Indonesia, Thailand, and Perma.
