seed drills
Mechanized planting equipment
Seed drills are farming implements that plant seeds in neat rows at controlled depths, then cover them with soil.
Before their invention, farmers scattered seed by hand—wasteful and uneven.
The seed drill revolutionized agriculture by spacing seeds uniformly, reducing waste, and improving crop yields.
The farmer hitched the seed drill to his tractor.
