Sowing crops on a farm would be backbreaking working without the machines called planters. These tractor-pulled tools can look quite different. Some are small, sowing just one row, and some can plant as many as 48 rows at a time. Readers will find out how these machines work and see their parts in motion in labeled photographs. Theyll also discover how technology is changing this farm machine as well as some other seeding devices.

The seeds on a farm don’t sow themselves, but luckily farmers have sophisticated machinery to help them transform a fertile field into a bountiful breadbasket. This book takes readers out to the fields to see planters at work. Kids will learn new words as they explore different types of planters and how they work. Vivid photographs show planters at work and the fruits (and vegetables) of their labors.
