Worrying about stuff like that will just give you ulcers. Where I came from 100 miles south of where I'm at now we had "disc harrows", "Springtooth harrows" and "pegtooth harrows". Up here they have "harrows" (pronounced "har-ows", not "hair-ows" as we pronounced it), a springtooth harrow is a "drag" and a pegtooth a "finishing drag". Silage that spoils gets "het up" and that heavy thing in your tractor is a "batry", not a battery. What to me is a "bog harrow" is called a "plowing disc" up here.
I don't know what the difference is or why one group of farmers calls things by one name and another group 100 miles south calls it by another. I can't say it really matters much to me either. Does make you wonder though.
