2. Disc harrow - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disc_harrow

   Lighter secondary disc harrows help completely incorporate residue left by a primary disc harrow, eliminate clumps, and loosen the remaining packed soil.

3. Harrow (tool) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harrow_(tool)

   The disk harrow is used first to slice up the large clods left by the mould-board plough, followed by the spring-tooth harrow. To save time and fuel they may be pulled by one tractor; the disk hitched to the tractor, and the spring-tooth hitched to, and directly behind, the disk. The result is a smooth field with powdery dirt at the surface.

7. Cultivator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cultivator

   Small tilling equipment, used in small gardens such as household gardens and small commercial gardens, can provide both primary and secondary tillage. For example, a rotary tiller does both the "plowing" and the "harrowing", preparing a smooth, loose seedbed. It does not provide the row-wise weed control that cultivator teeth would.
