Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The Sumerians streamlined this process by attaching a seed funnel to their plows. They called this the seeder plow. As the plow moved forward, seeds dropped from the funnel into the soil. This made planting crops much easier.
Detailed explanation-2: -No one person is credited with inventing the plow. Instead, the earliest evidence of a Mesopotamian plow came from the Sumerians around 4000-3000 BCE. The first plows were made of dense wood, which were then attached to a pair of oxen who would pull the plow along the ground, thereby loosening the soil.
