Remember this!
Plow and tiller are both tools used for soil cultivation and preparation for planting. However, the difference between plow and tiller is their size, method, depth, purpose, and efficiency. A plow is a larger, heavier tool used for tilling larger fields with greater depth, while a tiller is a smaller, handheld tool used for smaller areas or containers with less depth. A plow is more efficient for large-scale farming, while a tiller is more efficient for small-scale gardening.
