The seed drill revolutionizes planting by allowing seeds to be sown directly into the soil at a consistent depth and spacing, which promotes better germination and growth. This method reduces seed wastage and minimizes the need for excessive weeding, as seeds are less likely to be scattered or eaten by birds. Additionally, it enables farmers to plant crops more efficiently and quickly, leading to increased productivity and higher yields. Overall, the seed drill simplifies the planting process, making farming more efficient and sustainable.
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.

He designed his drill with a rotating cylinder. Grooves were cut into the cylinder to allow seed to pass from the hopper above to a funnel below. They were then fixed into a channel dug by a till at the front of the machine, then immediately covered by a harrow attached to the rear. This limited the wastage of seeding and made the crop easier to weed.

The first seed drill was invented by Camillo Torello and patented by the Venetian Senate in 1566. It was later modernised by Jethro Tull.
