Animal-drawn moldboard plows and tractor-drawn moldboard plows are used to break up and turn soil, especially in hard or rocky conditions. Disc plows and disc harrows are used to break up, mix, and smooth soil, while spike tooth harrows further break up clods and residue. Furrowers are meant to remove residue from soil surfaces rather than till deep furrows. Rotavators use rotating blades to turn soil for preparation. Planting hole diggers are used to dig holes for planting rooted plants. Rolling injection planters have been modified for manually planting crops like groundnuts on ridges.

Disc Harrow opens and breaks up the soil surface
to help prepare the soil seedbed for planting. They have applications in homeowner landscaping, small nurseries, and gardens. Spike Tooth Harrow cuts through clods, manure, and grasses to break up material into finer pieces so that it can be spread evenly across the ground. This harrow does an excellent job of smoothing garden plots, fields, arenas, and landscaping areas.
Furrower row cleaning devices often are misused when
planting, creating a deep furrow, similar to that of a lister. The main function of row cleaning devices is to remove residue and weed seed from the soil surface for easy planting and not to till a deep furrow.
Rotavator is a useful piece of machinery when it comes to
soil preparation. These versatile pieces farming equipment is a motorized machine which uses rotating blades to turn soil.
Planting hole digger tool for digging a planting hole for
planting a rooted plant in a garden or landscape area. The tool includes cutting edges that may be pressed into the planting area by a user standing in an upright position.
Rolling injection planter manually operated, has
been used successfully for planting soybean and rice. Modifications were made with the aim to use this planter for planting groundnut on ridges in irrigated areas.
