What role did geography play in how the greeks obtained food

Answers

I would say that geography meant that Greece was very rocky so agriculture was difficult so Greece would have to rely on trade for some of its food. On the other hand, Greece has many islands in the Mediterranean which probably allowed the residents to catch fish and supplement their diet with that and perhaps trade fish for agricultural products.

Greece was really rocky and supported growth of only a few crops,so they did trading to obtain food.
