Abstract: An agricultural implement includes a frame forming a plurality of sections. A plurality of tools is operatively coupled to the frame for penetrating an underlying surface upon which the implement travels. A controller is coupled to the frame. A plurality of control valves is operably controllable between an open and a closed position. A sensor for detecting a depth of penetration of at least one tool of the plurality of tools is coupled to the frame wherein the sensor is coupled to the controller for communicating the detected depth, and wherein the controller compares the detected depth to a target depth and operably controls the position of each of the plurality of control valves until the depth of the at least one tool on the frame is at the target depth.

Abstract: A main depth control input is detected, that indicates a depth of a soil engaging implement. A corresponding position of a stabilizer depth control actuator is identified, and a control signal is generated to control a main depth control actuator based on the main depth setting detected, and to control a stabilizer depth control actuator based upon the corresponding position identified.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, computer program product, and a computer system for automated deployment of autonomous devices performing localized environment altering actions. A processor detects a set of weather conditions for a region, wherein the set of weather conditions includes at least temperature. A processor predicts whether the temperature will influence bodily functions of at least one organism of a plurality of organisms in the region. A processor dispatches one or more autonomous devices in response to predicting that the temperature will influence the bodily functions of the at least one organism of the plurality of organisms in the region.

Abstract: A method for estimating and adjusting crop residue parameters may include controlling an operation of a tillage implement as the implement is being towed by a work vehicle across the field to perform a tillage operation and receiving a pre-tilled image of an imaged portion of the field located to one side of a first section of the field as the implement is being towed across the first section of the field. The method may also include receiving a post-tilled image of the imaged portion of the field as the implement is being towed across the field, analyzing the pre-tilled and post-tilled images of the imaged portion of the field to estimate a crop residue parameter for the field, and, when the estimated parameter differs from a target associated with such parameter, actively adjusting the operation of the tillage implement in a manner designed to adjust the crop residue parameter.

Abstract: A system and method for crop management uses data of specific varieties, such as the effect of growing degree units (GDU) on the phenological stage and optimal soil moisture percentage (SMP) to predict crop growth, to water the crops, and to manage agricultural systems by suggesting planting dates required to meet harvest goals. For plants growing in irrigation tracts, the system and method may use soil moisture sensors and the phenological stage information to provide water to the plants. In other embodiments, predictions are made of harvest dates for planted varieties and/or planting dates to reach harvest goals. The effect of mulching may be taken into account.

Abstract: An implement is disclosed for smoothing grounds that include at least a compact base having a top surface and a lesser compact footing on top of the base. The implement includes a frame having a front portion, a central portion, a rear portion, and a width. Wheels are mounted for rotation directly to the frame, and tools are carried by the frame for engagement with the ground. The tools include a specially shaped cleaving blade connected to the rear portion of the frame by a tool support, which securely connects the cleaving blade at predetermined heights. The blade has a front shaving edge and a rear compressing edge. The blade extends straight across the width of the frame so as to maximize the drag displaced on the frame during use of the blade. Arrangement of the wheels directly on the frame provides optimal stabilization of the frame during operation of the blade.

A set of weather conditions for a region is received. Based on the weather conditions predicting the weather in the region is likely to have a negative effect on at least one living organism in the region. Then dispatching, one or more autonomous devices to the region, wherein the one or more autonomous devices comprise a set of sensors and at least one temperature altering element. The autonomous devices is directed to a first location of the first living organism, based, at least in part on a set of data received from the set of sensors. The autonomous devices is directed to alleviate at least a portion of the negative effect of the temperature to the first living organism.

Abstract: A mobile device receives a shared access key corresponding to a work machine. An access code is generated from the shared access key, and from a changing value (such as a time-sensitive value). The access code is transmitted to the work machine which, itself, calculates an access code based on the shared access key and based on the changing value. If the access code provided to the work machine and the access code generated by the work machine match one another, then the work machine unlocks corresponding functionality so that the operator can use the work machine.

Abstract: A seed depth device for an agricultural planter includes an electric motor, an actuator, a stop, a controller, and a seed depth auto-learn system. The actuator is driven by the electric motor, and is constructed and arranged to move between a home position and a full extension position. The stop is proximate to the actuator when in the home position. The controller includes a computing processor and a computer readable storage medium configured to control the electric motor. The seed depth auto-learn system is, at least in-part, stored and executed by the controller. The seed depth auto-learn system is configured to learn the home position based, at least in-part, on the actuator stalling upon the stop.
