Agriculture in Scotland includes all land use for arable, horticultural or pastoral activity in Scotland, or around its coasts. The first permanent settlements and farming date from the Neolithic period, from around 6,000 years ago. From the beginning of the Bronze Age, about 2000 BCE, arable land spread at the expense of forest. From the Iron Age, beginning in the seventh century BCE, there was use of cultivation ridges and terraces. During the period of Roman occupation there was a reduction in agriculture and the early Middle Ages were a period of climate deterioration resulting in more unproductive land. Most farms had to produce a self-sufficient diet, supplemented by hunter-gathering. More oats and barley were grown, and cattle were the most important domesticated animal. From c. 115

  • تشمل الزراعة في اسكتلندا استخدامات الأراضي للنشاط الزراعي أو البستاني أو الرعوي في اسكتلندا أو حول سواحلها. تعود أولى حالات الاستيطان الدائم المصحوب بالعمل الزراعي إلى العصر الحجري الحديث، منذ ما يقارب 6000 سنة. مع بداية العصر البرونزي، قبل 2000 عام، انتشرت الأراضي الزراعية على حساب الغابات. انتشرت زراعة المدرجات والمتون ابتداءً من العصر الحديدي (بدءًا من القرن السابع الميلادي). حدث انخفاض في النشاط الزراعي خلال فترة الاحتلال الروماني، وكانت بدايات العصور الوسطى فترة تدهور مناخي وأدى ذلك إلى زيادة مساحات الأراضي غير المنتجة. كان على معظم المَزارع تحقيق الاكتفاء الذاتي من الطعام، الذي يُستكمل النقص فيه عن طريق الصيد وجمع الثمار. زُرع الشوفان والشعير أكثر من الذرة، وكانت الأبقار أكثر الحيوانات المستأنسة أهمية. سمحت الحقبة القروسطية الدافئة الممتدة من عام 1150 حتى عام 1300 بالزراعة في المرتفع (ar)
