Incas didn't have any domesticated animals for farming so they needed to use manual tools for there farming needs.Another way that people adapt to their environment is terrace farming. What is this exactly? Well, think of a steep-sloping hillside. If this is the only land you have to grow crops on, how do you then grow crops without everything sliding down the hillside? Since ancient times, farmers have built terraces to shore up a hillside, creating several levels of farms. In a small, seemingly inhospitable place, they can grow the crops they need to grow to survive.Incan farmers grew a variety of crops Potatoes, corn, tomatoes, avocados, peppers, strawberries, peanuts, cashews, squash, beans, pineapples, chocolate, and other crops.Farming was a family activity in Incan society. The men broke up the dirt, and the women followed planting seeds into the earth. Children were often used to scare away birds and animals.
