furrowers
Row-cutting farm tools
Furrowers are tools, machines, or people that make furrows—long narrow trenches in soil for planting seeds or drainage.
In agriculture, a furrower attachment on a plow or tractor cuts parallel grooves across a field: The furrowers prepared neat rows for the potato crop.
Figuratively, anything that creates groove-like lines: Years of worry had made furrowers of his expressions.
