Noting that there was a medieval agricultural revolution is not to say that this revolution occurred out of a vacuum. Pre med warm period ag and post med warm period ag are fundamentally different - with what came after being the basis of modern ag. Villas did not possess the needs, the tools, or the management principles - so this shouldn't be taken as a criticism of that system either.
Just a credit where credit is due thing. Huge swaths of the world might have been covered in a feudal morass, and those serfs who worked the land were at the bottom of the social order...but they did produce an innovative agricultural system that we use to this day. It was a significant achievement for humanity.
