They just throw their seeds in the fields and they grow.  The presence of large mammals also contributed to the successful agriculture. Oxen, which were attached to plows, helped the farmers to till the land. They were also able to domesticate pigs, goats, sheep, and cattle. Donkeys, meanwhile, were attached to carts and helped farmers to transport the crops.

They made canals, dikes, and ditches to ensure that their crops have enough water. When the flood season of the rivers is over, the farmers drain excess water through canals.

Afterwards, they plow the fields and rake it repeatedly. The Sumerians planted in spring and by fall, they begin to harvest. They developed tools such as pickaxes, wagons, and sleds to help them in the process.
