The transition from hunting & gathering to farming happened at different times in different areas & was often a gradual shift. Many cultures moved from simply hunting to herding, but still maintained nomadic lifestyles, migrating with their herds. Some of the Sami people of Northern Scandinavia still herd reindeer in a traditional, semi-nomadic way.

Cultivating the land began in the Middle East about 12000 years ago & spread from there. Initially, people grew a very limited variety of crops (figs being one of the earliest plants to be farmed) & they continued to hunt & gather as well.

When people were still nomads they were generally gatherers but when people settled down and built permanent homes, it became impractical to still be gathering and it was most likely more convenient for them to grow their own foods. As population grew the more necessary it was to have farms, and the more farms there were to support the ever growing amount of people in an area.
