This paper focuses on production and distribution of agricultural surplus. The organisation of food production and its redistribution is an essential factor for understanding the complexity of the society and for determining its socio-economic limits. The major key aspect is the significance of agriculture as the primary source of subsistence and organisation of potential surplus production. In order to approach the degree of complexity achieved, there are several issues to think of, concerning especially the character of the agricultural production and its targets, the accumulation of capital and its treatment, the sustainability of the production systems, risk minimization strategies, the ability of coping with stress situations and the ultimate limits of the functioning production.
