Causes of the Neolithic Revolution

There could have been many causes for the neolithic revolution. It could have been because of a population increase that forced the people to stop hunting and gathering because the fruits of their labor were only sufficiant for a short amount of time. They needed a sure-fire way to insure that they had a steady food supply for all of their people. Thus, they planted the seeds they were gathering and cultivated some of the most basic types of plants such as wheat and barley. IT also could have been because of over hunting and over gathering that left all of the land they migrated to virtually barren. This, of course, posed a problem to their survival. It could have made them so desprate as to intrude into other peoples hunting grounds leading to conflicts between the two groups. So, war could have been another reason. You would want to avoid confrontation if you were starving, right? It sounds like a good reason to find an alternate food source to me.
