Farm tools, implements, and equipment play very important role in agricultural
crop operations. Their availability makes the work much easier and faster. However,
even if one may have the most sophisticated tools and implements, but does not know
how to use them, they are useless. In order to do crop production operations
successfully, one must have a good working knowledge of the tools, implements and
equipment before using them.
Examples:
Bolo is used for cutting tall grasses and weeds and
chopping branches of trees.
Farm Implements

machineries (hand tractor, tractor) which are usually used in the preparation of land. These

making furrows and inter row cultivation. Plows pulled by working animals are made
of either a combination of metal and wood or pure metal. They are used to till areas
with a shallower depth than that of the disc plows which are pulled by tractors.
