Agriculture has temporarily allowed humans to violate this principle. Temporarily in cosmic terms, but its possible that in any normal human terms its almost permanent. Refinements in normal agriculture will eventual have limits, but it looks like other factors (birth control being a big one) will keep our population down anyway. Also if your project far enough in to the future, and if we need more food then you could have anything from hydroponics to genetically engineered microorganisms producing food in large vats. (But then maybe you don't call that last idea "agriculture")
