Solution

The correct option is A Plough

The process of loosening and turning the soil is termed as tilling or ploughing. A plough, an ancient wood tool, is used for ploughing.
Cutting down the mature crops close to the ground is called harvesting. It is done by a modern harvesting machine known as a harvester.
Weeds are unwanted plants that grow along with the crops. They are removed by using the weed harrow or weedicides.
Process of putting seeds in the soil is called sowing. It is done by using an instrument called seed drill.
