The answer

There is no Quranic or authentic Prophetic tradition that proves Adam (peace be upon him) was a farmer. Weak narrations have been reported from Ibn Abbas and others describing him as a tiller, but their chains of transmission are not sound. Nevertheless, some interpretations and historical accounts indicate that he worked the land after his descent.
