Gardening would have a higher yield per area than farming. The amount of area needed would decrease. Labor needed would increase.

Not really. Gardening the typical garden crops do - but those are high labor which is why we garden them. You could plant wheat in your garden it would be more labor, but your yields would probably be less, or if you are really good the same.
Most people would be much healthier consuming less soybeans and corn syrup and more garden vegetables.
Actually we would be better consuming more soybeans. Most of it goes to animal feed.
