A Brief History of Farm Equipment

We often take for granted how much agriculture has changed over the last few centuries. Modern tools like tractors, balers, and harvesters may fulfill similar functions to the tools of the past, but they allow a farmer to do far more work in a much shorter amount of time. If you’re interested in learning more about the history of farm equipment, check out this guide from the experts at Jasper Tractor Store.

Early Years

While modern agriculture is no walk in the park, things were even more difficult back in the day. Farmers wanted to be able to do more work for the same amount of effort, just as they do in modern times. Simple hand tools like plows, hows, and sickles may seem primitive by our standards, but they were revolutionary when they were first introduced. These simple tools predate modern history, and are still in use today.

Animal Labor and Mechanization

The next big advancement in agriculture equipment came in the form of domesticated animals. Drafts horses, oxen, and other strong animals with a lot of endurance could do the work of many people without difficulty. Around the world, different civilizations invented new tools and strategies to better adapt to the unique agricultural challenges that they faced. As time went on, the tools that they used became more and more complex, eventually evolving into the mowers, threshers, reapers, binders, planters, drills, and hay rakes used today. Though the advent of mechanization led to tractors replacing animal labor in most cases, it can’t be overstated how the difference that domesticating these animals made.
