Agriculture has been doing it for centuries.

Except that it hasn't.

Breeding plants to have softer husks and fatter seeds isn't macroevolution.

No one has bred barley into a tomato.

If they did, that would be evidence AGAINST evolution. Evolution states that the various species now in existence arose from accumulated small changes, not from a major change over a single generation.

How about breeding mustard into both broccoli and cauliflower? That ought to count for something!
