Scientists Prove Agriculture Has Existed for 25 Million Years

Quote

The earliest evidence for farming comes from insects, not humans. This week, a team of scientist announced their discovery of the oldest fossil evidence of agriculture, publishing their findings in PLOS ONE. The discovery impacts our understanding of how environments evolve and how agricultural activities can allow species to spread to new habitats; it also proves that agriculture has been practiced on Earth for 25 million years.

It isn't the same thing but a form of symbiosis.  I suppose agriculture could be thought of that way, but that would only confuse matters.  The article tells us things we have known for ages in a misleading and publicity-seeking manner.
