Ploughing:

  • Ploughing is the process of loosening and turning the soil (tilling).
  • It is required to lose and turn the soil in the fields before sowing the seeds in order to break it down to the size of the grains, which is achieved with the help of three major implements or instruments to plough: hoe, cultivator, and plough.
  • In the process of levelling, the earth is evenly dispersed and levelled after it has been ploughed.
  • After that, the soil is manured. Ploughing is the process of loosening and excavating dirt.
  • Ploughing has the following advantages:
  1. Ploughing loosens the soil, allowing nutrients from deep in the soil to rise to the surface.  
  2. As the aeration of the soil improves, more air becomes accessible for breathing and roots can easily penetrate the soil.
  3. Ploughing is also used for manure integration, weed uprooting, and the elimination of infectious diseases, insects, and other pests. For this purpose, wood or iron ploughs are utilised. This plough is pulled by bullocks or tractors.
