3. Inventions and improvements in farm technology: In 1837 John Deere invented a plow that could slice through heavy soil. In 1847 Cyrus McCormick began to mass-produce a reaping machine. Other inventions included the spring-tooth harrow to prepare the soil, the grain drill to plant the seed, barbed wire to fence the land, and a corn binder. These inventions sped up the farming process and greatly increased the profits of farmers.
