An improved design of the original steal plow. This plow features a staggered row of multiple(4,5,6) plows, used to plow multiple rows for crops at once.]]> 2023-09-06 17:01:22 UTC https://padlet.com/soalasgrim349/zce8pj9epqz60oti/wish/2687169224 soalasgrim349 https://padlet.com/soalasgrim349/zce8pj9epqz60oti/wish/2687199266 Inventor: The Ruffner brothers(In US)
Year of creation: 1808

The first standard cable-tool drilling rig was created in West Virginia by the Ruffner brothers. These brothers inherited a piece of “salt” land in the Great Kanawha River. Demand for salt increased and the brothers created a successful salt mining business. The Ruffner brothers developed the water drill by using the salt drills as a reference. ]]> 2023-09-06 17:18:48 UTC https://padlet.com/soalasgrim349/zce8pj9epqz60oti/wish/2687199266 soalasgrim349 https://padlet.com/soalasgrim349/zce8pj9epqz60oti/wish/2687213329 Inventor: Joseph Glidden
Year of creation: 1874

Livestock farming was a more prominent part of agriculture in the 1800s, but with without reliable ways to keep cattle in one place it was common practice for cattle to roam freely onto other peoples land. Glidden was tired of cattle walking onto his front yard so he developed a fence with sharpened wire coils to deter cattle from walking into his yard. Thus the framework for modern barbed wire was laid.]]> 2023-09-06 17:26:01 UTC https://padlet.com/soalasgrim349/zce8pj9epqz60oti/wish/2687213329 soalasgrim349 https://padlet.com/soalasgrim349/zce8pj9epqz60oti/wish/2687571243 Inventor:Joe Froelich

The gas tractor was made as a direct upgrade from the steam engine tractors. Not only were they much more efficient, the design of the enclosed combustion engine was much safer than the boiler needed to power steam engines. The sparks of the boiler proved to be hazard for farmers and the crops.]]> 2023-09-06 22:46:14 UTC https://padlet.com/soalasgrim349/zce8pj9epqz60oti/wish/2687571243 soalasgrim349 https://padlet.com/soalasgrim349/zce8pj9epqz60oti/wish/2687572489 (ThoughtCo. used for general chronological placement of inventions.

That being erosion of gears due to the environmental conditions. The gear box allowed for the gears to be protected and lubricated. This was pivotal in ensuring that farmers could start to rely on their gas powered machinery.]]> 2023-09-06 23:00:05 UTC https://padlet.com/soalasgrim349/zce8pj9epqz60oti/wish/2687580363 soalasgrim349 https://padlet.com/soalasgrim349/zce8pj9epqz60oti/wish/2687587845 Inventor: Frederick McKinley Jones

The refrigerated truck was an extremely important part in expanding the agriculture industry. These trucks would allow for perishable foods to be shipped to all over the country.]]> 2023-09-06 23:12:07 UTC https://padlet.com/soalasgrim349/zce8pj9epqz60oti/wish/2687587845 soalasgrim349 https://padlet.com/soalasgrim349/zce8pj9epqz60oti/wish/2687600739 Early 2000s

Smartphones make a lot of things easier including Farming. Smartphones gave farmers an easy way to make purchases, connect with other farmers, share knowledge and portable way of having any data they may need. Now farmers were able to have a prediction of the weather, and be able to know how much rain each field received without having to travel to it.]]> 2023-09-06 23:20:21 UTC https://padlet.com/soalasgrim349/zce8pj9epqz60oti/wish/2687600739
