Ploughing is the agricultural process of turning over soil to prepare it for planting crops. This is typically done using a tool called a plough, which can be pulled by animals or tractors. The main goal of ploughing is to aerate the soil, mix in organic matter, and control weeds, making it easier for seeds to germinate and grow. There are different types of ploughing methods, including conventional ploughing and no-till ploughing. Conventional ploughing involves turning the soil over completely, while no-till ploughing leaves the soil undisturbed, reducing erosion and preserving moisture. Both methods aim to improve soil health and crop yields.
