Mouldboard Plough The parts of mouldboard plough are frog or body, mouldboard or wing, share, landside,connecting,

rod,bracket and handle.This type of plough leaves no unploughed land as the furrow slices are cut clean and inverted to one
side resulting in better pulverisation.

Disc Plough The disc plough is more suitable for land in which there is much fibrous growth of weeds as the disc cuts and
incorporates the weeds. The disc plough works well in soils free from stones. No harrowing is necessary to break the clods of
the upturned soil as in a mouldboard plough.

Wooden plough Indigenous plough is an implement whichis made of wood with an iron share point. It cuts a V shaped furrow
and opens the soil but there is no inversion. Ploughingoperation is also not perfect because some unploughed strip is always
left between furrows.

Rotary Plough Rotary plough cuts the soil and pulverizes it. The cutting of soil is done by either blades or tynes. The blade types
are widely used. The depth of cut is up to 12 to 15 cm. It is suitable for light soils.

Subsoil Plough Subsoil plough is designed to break up hard layers or pans without bringing them to the surface. The body of the
subsoil plough is wedge shaped and narrow while the share is wide so as to shatter the hard pan and making only a slot on the
top layers.

Disc harrow  It is a harrow, which performs the harrowing operation by means of a set, or a number of sets of rotating slat
discs, each set being mounted on a common shaft.  Disc are mounted on one, two or more axles which may be set at a
variable angle to the line of motion.  It cuts the lumps of soil, clods and roots.

Spike tooth harrow  It is a harrow with peg shaped teeth of diamond cross section to a rectangular frame.  It is used to break
the clod, stir the soil, uproot the weeds, level the ground, break the soil and cover the seeds.  Its principle is to smoothen and
level the soil directly after plugging.  Spike tooth harrows may be of rigid type and flexible type. Tractor drawn harrows are
usually flexible type.  It has got the advantage of being turned up for transporting purpose .  This harrow mainly consists of
teeth, tooth bar frame, clamps, guard, braces, levers and hooks.

Acme harrow  It is also called as knife harrow.  The front part of the knife breaks the soil and crushes the clods .  This
harrow obtains a good pulverization.

Patela Harrow  It is a wooden plank used for smoothening the soil and crushing the weeds.  It is also used for breaking clods,
packing and leveling the ploughed soil and to remove the weeds.  The cutting edge levels and packs the soil and the curved
hooks uproot and collect the weeds.

Blade harrow  It is used to prepare seedbeds mostly in clayey soils.  It works like a sweep, which moves into top surface of
the soil without inverting the soil.
