C’mon, Mohammedans mastered it long ago...
you raid the productive societies.
As a matter of fact they are ingenious at their endeavours.
They managed to take four seasons of farming and reduce it to one season, harvest!
Some traditions never change. They never developed the necessary infrastructure.
