Life in ancient Egypt was centered largely on agriculture. The majority of the
people were involved in farming, and the growing season lasted eight-nine
months. Wheat, fruits and vegetables were the principal crops, although there
was some pastoral farming of cattle, sheep, or goats. Farmers in ancient
Egypt worked to reach a level of subsistence so that they could feed
themselves and pay their taxes. During the annual flooding of the Nile, which
typically lasted from July through November, farming was impossible. But
when the waters receded, a thick layer of fertile silt over the farmlands
remained to insure rich soil for their crops and thick grasses for their grazing
animals.
