Why animal husbandry and the cultivation of wheat, barley, grapes and lentils took longer to reach Denmark, no one is sure.
Just a wild guess here, if the hunting/gathering is easy why farm? The interior of Europe would get much colder and the need for farming and trading would be greater.

From another post, in 10,000 BC we were just beginning to come out of the last ice age and the Finno-Scandavian ice sheet was just beginning to melt. The sea level would have been about 300 feet lower than now and it was much colder that normal.
The Holocene maximum was about 4000 BC, maybe that is why they changed or started to change since anything would grow well.

Origin of the phrase - "Something Sproutin' in Denmark"?
