Parrothead Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 (edited) What are six farming implements? This is a grammar lesson about nouns. Dd has to list 4, 5 or 6 things in several categories. My farmer's son husband is out of pocket and all I can think of is a tractor. I'm not sure is irrigation system is an actual farm implement or not. Please help the city chick out.

Parrothead Posted September 9, 2010 Author Share Posted September 9, 2010 Would a baler, hoe, seeder, combine.....count? I suppose. I can imagine what a baler (for hay bales?) hoe (like a garden hoe?) and seeder (probably drops seeds in rows.) What is a combine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EKS Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 How about just naming the implements a gardener might use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elegantlion Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 Are you using Rod & Staff? Just a guess... ETA: Oh, Harvey's....farming implements? plow? Oxen, although not an implement, it is a noun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fairfarmhand Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 hoe, rake, tiller, disc (tractor attachment), tedder (tractor attachment that helps with haying), hay rake, baler (bales hay), plow, combine (harvests grain), sprayer.... guess what my family does????

mommaduck Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 A combine is what harvests the corn (and I believe soybeans). An auger is another implement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Mungo Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 Why don't you just alter the question to something you do know 6 nouns for? How about kitchen tools or yard toys? The answer key is going to say "answers will vary" anyhow. Don't be a slave to the book! :iagree: I'm from Oklahoma and my DH is from Texas. We were once playing pictionary (girls v guys) with a couple from New York City. We hit an impasse with the word "silo." They had no clue. ;) So, don't feel badly, just choose another type of noun!
