A disc plough is a farming tool used for tilling soil. It consists of several round, flat discs that cut into the ground as they are pulled by a tractor. The shape of the discs allows them to slice through tough soil and crop residues, making it easier to prepare fields for planting. This type of plough is particularly effective in hard or rocky soils, where traditional ploughs may struggle. By turning over the soil, a disc plough helps improve aeration and drainage, promoting better crop growth. It is commonly used in conjunction with other farming equipment, such as tractors and seeders.
