A geographic position of an agricultural machine is captured. Agricultural data is received that corresponds to a geographic position. Georeferenced visual indicia are displayed that are indicative of the received agricultural data.

A system for determining agricultural vehicle guidance quality includes an imaging device configured to capture image data depicting a plurality of crops rows present within a field as an agricultural vehicle travels across the field. Additionally, the system includes a controller communicatively coupled to the imaging device. As such, the controller configured to determine a guidance line for guiding the agricultural vehicle relative to the plurality of crop rows based on the captured image data. Furthermore, the controller is configured to determine a crop row boundary consistency parameter associated with one or more crop rows of the plurality of crop row present within a region of interest of the captured image data. Moreover, the controller is configured to determine a quality metric for the guidance line based on the crop row boundary consistency parameter.

A mobile work machine includes a wireless communication system configured to receive a wireless communication signal from a transmitter corresponding to a machine component on the mobile work machine, machine component identification logic configured to obtain a machine component identifier, that uniquely identifies the machine component, based on the wireless communication signal, operation detection logic configured to detect a machine operation associated with the machine component and to generate component performance data correlated to the machine component based on the machine operation, and control signal generator logic configured to generate a control signal that controls the mobile work machine based on the component performance data.

An agricultural vehicle includes a chassis, wheels supporting the chassis for moving the vehicle, an application boom coupled to the chassis and configured to deliver agricultural product to an agricultural field. The application boom has a boom arm including a longitudinal mount. In embodiments, the longitudinal mount includes a first projection, a second multi-lip projection, and a third projection. The second multi-lip projection has a first lip and a second lip. The agricultural vehicle further includes a first mounted attachment fastened to the first projection and the first lip of the second projection, and a second mounted attachment fastened to the second lip of the second projection and the third projection.

A farming machine moves through a field and performs one or more farming actions (e.g., treating one or more plants) in the field. Portions of the field may include moisture, such as puddles or mud patches. A control system associated with the farming machine may include a traversability model and/or a moisture model to help the farming machine operate in the field with the moisture. In particular, the control system may employ the traversability model to reduce the likelihood of the farming machine attempting to traverse an untraversable portion of the field, and the control system may employ the moisture model to reduce the likelihood of the farming machine performing an action that will damage a portion of the field.

An apparatus for efficient targeting or removal of weeds or other plants. The apparatus may include a vehicle having a frame, a motor and a plurality of ground engaging members adapted to propel the vehicle over a surface. It may also include a robotic arm comprising a distal portion and a proximal portion coupled to the frame, and an implement, such as a tool or hoe connected to the distal portion of the robotic arm. The implement can be raised and lowered, and also moved relative to the surface by the robotic arm by pivoting or rotating the robotic arm at or near the proximal portion.

An agricultural sprayer includes a nozzle assembly having a nozzle body, a valve moveably positioned within the nozzle body, and an actuator configured to move the valve within the nozzle body. Additionally, the agricultural sprayer includes a computing system having a spray controller positioned outside of the nozzle body and a nozzle controller positioned within the nozzle body. The spray controller is communicatively coupled to the nozzle controller such that the spray controller is configured to transmit control signals to the nozzle controller via a first communicative link, with the nozzle being controller configured to control an operation of the actuator based on the control signals received from the spray controller. Moreover, the spray controller is communicatively coupled to the actuator such that the spray controller is configured to directly control the operation of the actuator via a second communicative link independently of the nozzle controller.

An agricultural applicator machine has a frame and at least one horizontally extending boom assembly. The boom assembly pivots to a folded position in which it is secured in a boom-cradle mechanism. The boom-cradle mechanism includes a crossmember and a boom rest at an outer end of the crossmember, the boom rest having a rigid inboard boom stop, a rigid outboard boom stop, and a saddle portion. The inboard boom stop extends from the saddle portion in an out-of-phase configuration relative the outboard boom stop. The boom-cradle mechanism has a locking assembly having an actuator assembly configured to rotate the crossmember, and thus the cradle boom rest. The actuator assembly connects to the crossmember through a linkage assembly. The actuator assembly causes the crossmember to rotate causing the boom rest to move between an open position and a locked position.

Kits for vehicles may include pulse-width-modulated solenoids configured to selectably turn individual nozzle assemblies on and off and vary their flow rates when installed in fluid communication with the nozzle assemblies, one or more wirelessly-controllable solenoid controllers, a wiring harness to electrically connect the pulse-width-modulated solenoids to the controller(s), a wirelessly-communicating GPS antenna system, a LiDAR sensing system which may be wirelessly-communicating, associated wiring and bracketry to connect the kit with a vehicle, and a mobile device configured to wirelessly cause the one or more controllers to turn individual nozzle assemblies on and off and vary their flow rates based on sensed data and/or recorded data, in view of user-selected criteria.

The invention relates to a sprayer of the type comprising a turbine that generates an air current, a nozzle that channels the air current and an outlet of this current to the outside, carrying with it the product dosed by a series of nozzles arranged in the area of influence of the air current, the sprayer being special in that both the air outlet opening and the turbine can be configured and act in a coordinated manner to obtain the desired air flow for each type of crop and spray application, where the optimum air flow for each spray application and the configuration of the turbine and opening are determined by the actual sprayer by means of a processor and auxiliary means.
