When was the lightweight plow invented?
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 steal plow was an important invention because it made farming in the Midwest easier. The soil there was sticky compared to the light and sandy soil of New England. John Deere made the first steal plow. Steal is a high polished material that essentially cleans itself as it cuts through the soil. This invention opened up the west for wide scale agricultural development: hence the more rapid and residential development expansion west. J. Ode
