A method for observing the crop processing and/or handling working processes of an agricultural machine is provided. The method utilizes a digital video system with a plurality of digital image acquisition units, with at least one display unit and with at least one network coupling element preferably designed as a switch, via which the image acquisition units are connected to the display unit. The image acquisition units record image data for images of, in particular, a video stream, and at least one of the images, in particular of the video stream, is reproduced at least partially in one of in particular a plurality of configurable shapes comprising one or multiple image reproduction regions on the display unit that is in particular designed as a touchscreen of an EDP unit that is preferably designed as a Panel PC (8).

A method of transitioning a first truck and a second truck during harvesting using a harvesting system. The harvesting system includes a vehicle and a harvester and the harvester includes a plow, an elevator, a table, and a boom. The vehicle includes a power take off. The method includes turning on, by the operator, at least one of the table and the boom. The method also includes selecting, by the operator, an operating speed of the boom. The method further includes turning off, by the operator, at least one of the table and the boom. The method also includes depositing potatoes in the first truck.

Methods and devices for automated adjustment of a digging implement during harvest of underground crops are described. Utilizing the devices, a digging implement, e.g., a blade, can be located and maintained at a desired depth as a harvester travels across a field. During use, the digging implement depth controls can be varied as the harvester travels within a single field under different operating conditions, e.g., different soil friability, consistency, etc., thereby preventing crop loss and improving crop yield.
