Discredit? Sorry, not intended. Just confused, since horses had been in use for ploughing for centuries. Unaware of any sea change in technique.

And in America of course we credit John Deere for reinventing the moldboard plow in the early 1800's. Sadly we weren't taught of any English innovations in school.

I did not intend to come off as salty as my comment reads either, no snark intended.
