seed drill - Charles Townsend
The Sumerians used primitive single-tube seed drills around 1,500 BCE, but the invention never reached Europe. Multi-tube seed drills were invented by the Chinese in the 2nd century BCE.[2] The first known European seed drill was invented by Camillo Torello and patented by the Venetian Senate in 1566. A seed drill with a detailed description is known from Tadeo Cavalina of Bologna in 1602.[2] In England, the seed drill was further refined by Jethro Tull in 1701 in the Industrial Revolution. It is often thought that the seed drill was introduced in Europe following contacts with China, where the invention was very ancient and highly developed.[2] Seed drills would not come into major use in Europe until the mid-19th century.
The "Seed Drill" was invented by Jethro Tull in 1701
The first people who used a primitive seed drill were the Sumerians at 1.500 BCE. The seed drill was reinvented by Camillo Torello in 1566 AD/ CE. IN 1701 a guy called Jethro Tull improved the drill.
The seed drill improved society because it took less time for the farmer to plow and plant, as it did both. Before the seed drill, he would have to plow then plant.

The Babylonians made and utilized a single-tube seed drill, but the exact year is not known. It was sometime around 1500 BC. The Chinese developed a multi-tube seed drill, but again the year is not known. It was sometime in the 2nd century BC. Camillo Torello made the first seed drill in Europe. He received a patent for it in 1566. The seed drill as we now know it was invented in 1701 by agricultural pioneer Jethro Tull (Yes, the band was named after him).
