Will our grandkids return to farming?

I’m really quite worried as our forefathers tried hard to a make a living tilling the land as peasants,land that was not even theirs and dream of a better future for their offspring Now with the decline of oil and no energy able to replace it,are our grandkids going to return to farming?
A century of oil backed growth have led many peasants seeking opportunities in the cities and the reverse will take place when the system collapse.
Will slavery and feudalism be back? I dreaded the day when mass populace will subscribe to the serf system to eke 3 meals a day. Nations reduced to mini states as central governments go down.Warlords and piracy will be back no doubt but facts are stranger than fiction and believe me…when that time comes..
Anarchy and brute force will rule the day..storytellers in the alleys will spin tales about how men was once civilized by the oil age..this all seem like a hollywood flick…only time will tell
With the growth in population everywhere, more and more good farmland is being built on. What will they do when there is little or no farmland left?
