Here are 7 agricultural implements for your farm that will make your life easier while also increasing your effectiveness and efficiency in the field.

 
India is an agricultural country. We have the highest agricultural output in the world, ranking second in the world. Naturally, the prevalence of farm equipment and implements in the country rises as a result. However, India is also a country where a large number of farmers do not use any type of farming equipment.
It may come as a shock that nearly 55 % of total land cultivation in India is still non-mechanized and dependent on manual labour or cattle.

Here are 7 agricultural implements for your farm that will make your life easier while also increasing your effectiveness and efficiency in the field.

Plough: This is one of the most popular farming implements with one or more blades. It's used to break up the soil before seeding or planting. Mould Board Plough and Disc Plough are two common types of ploughs used in fields. The suction of the Mould Board Plough forces it into the soil. The weight of the disc plough forces it into the soil. Both are commonly used in hard soils, dry soils, bushy and rocky landscape.

Power weeder: Power Weeder are used to remove weeds and pulverise the soil, and loosen the soil after the crop has started to grow. These machines are widely used for weeding all types of orchards, sugarcane, cotton, tomato, rose, tobacco, soya, tropiyoka, floriculture, coconut and cashew plantations.

Seed Drill: Seed Drill is strong and powerful tool used for sowing after harvesting. During the process, it also crushes and mixes the stubble. They are extremely fuel-efficient, help to retain soil moisture, and aid in the spread of seeds and fertilisers.

Trolley: Transportation is also as important as farming. The commercial transport of goods is referred to as haulage. A trolley aids in the smooth operation of activities by bringing in goods such as feed, hay, and machinery.

Thresher: Thresher is a part of farm machinery that threshes grain and separates the seeds from the stalks and husks.

Planter: Planter is agricultural equipment that is attached to a tractor via a drawbar. It is typically tucked behind a tractor that sows seeds in rows across a field. It is used to metre the seeds and place them in the furrow. Planters differ depending on the crop harvester. The potato planter machine, for example, is a popular farm implement for sowing seed potatoes.

Mower: Mower is a power tool that is used to achieve finely groomed land. It has powerful blades and rotary cutters for cutting grasses and collecting hay.
