Early people kept farming even though life might have been more interesting living as hunters and gatherers mainly because by actively managing their food supplies, agricultural societies were capable to produce more food than hunter-foragers and thus supporting denser populations.
When early humans started farming, they were able to produce sufficient food so they no longer had to migrate to their food source. This meant they could build permanent structures, and develop villages, towns, and gradually even cities.
These people still hunted and foraged, but they did not have to set out far for food. They had selected fertile places to settle down so food was abundant. Having a large population nearby made it valuable for farmers to grow more food than they needed for themselves, as they could trade this surplus for some other goods.
