Agriculture is the ratio main economic activity in ancient Mesopotamia. Operating under harsh constraints, notably the arid climate, the Mesopotamian farmers developed effective strategies that enabled them to support the development of the first states, the first cities, and then the first known empires, under the supervision of the institutions which dominated the economy: the royal and provincial palaces, the temples, and the domains of the elites. They focused above all on the cultivation of cereals (particularly barley) and sheep farming, but also farmed legumes, as well as date palms in the south and grapes in the north.

  • Mesopotamia, que tenía un clima subtropical sin estación seca, estaba dividida en dos grandes zonas agrícolas. La alta Mesopotamia, extensión oriental del Creciente fértil, se encuentra por encima del límite de la isoyeta 200, lo que permitía una agricultura de secano, gracias a las lluvias de invierno y primavera. Esto se aplica también al alto Djézireh (alrededor del triángulo de Khabur), para Asiria y las estribaciones de las montañas Zagros. Al sur de una línea que va desde el curso medio del Balkib y el bajo Dijiste hasta Susa a lo largo de la cadena de los Zagros al este del Tigris es el área de la agricultura de regadío, porque no hay lluvia suficiente para que prospere una agriculturae secano.

  • L'agriculture est l'activité économique principale de la Mésopotamie antique. Soumis à des contraintes fortes, notamment l'aridité et des sols pauvres, les paysans mésopotamiens ont développé des stratégies efficaces permettant à soutenir le développement des premiers États, des premières villes puis des premiers empires connus, sous l'égide des institutions dominant l'économie, à savoir les palais royaux et provinciaux, les temples et les domaines des élites. Elle repose avant tout sur la culture des céréales (l'orge surtout) et l'élevage ovin, mais aussi les légumineuses ou encore le palmier-dattier au sud et la vigne au nord. (fr)
