THE SEED DRILL

Jethro Tull invented the seed drill

PURPOSE:

• It allowed farmers to sow seeds in well-spaced rows at specific depths
• It helped make farming for efficient

IT WAS INVENTED IN ABOUT 1701

It was invented in England's farmland

It was invented to prevent farmers from wasting their seeds. Before this invention farmers scattered seeds across the land and most of the seeds were wasted. The seed drill solved that problem

This has affected today's farming greatly by making farming easier, faster, and less wasteful.
