Origin[edit | edit source]
Jethro Tull (1674-1741) was an English farmer who transitioned agriculture from a back-breaking job to a precise artform. Tull went ahead and created a seed drill, allowing farmers to plant seeds in orderly rows at constant depth. Attaching it to a horse reduced the need for so many hand laborers. He also advocated constantly tilling the soil to allow for moisture and air to reach the roots while removing weeds.
Effects[edit | edit source]
When put to dirt, creates perfectly straight rows of soil. Plants caught in these rows experience considerable growth, and the further from the hoe's point of origin, the more they grow.
