steel plow
JOHN DEERe's improved on Jothero Wood plow because he made a plow that had replaceable parts, but John Deere made a plow that he invented. His plow was a lightweight steel plow. But each plow had an heavy iron or wooden handles that was held on by slow-moving oxen's, or a horse. But they mostly used Horses back than because the Horses can get the field plowed quicklier than the slow-moving oxens.

The Ancient Egyptians used the plough like all farmers to turn and aerate the soil ready for cultivation. The plough was usually a simple affair made from wood hauled by oxen or a gang of slaves.
