An agricultural vehicle-trailer-combination includes a traction vehicle including an engine and at least one ground engagement mechanism. A trailer is coupled to the traction vehicle. A service brake connected to the at least one ground engagement mechanism. The combination includes a sensor and a control unit disposed in communication with the sensor, wherein a slip or a slip gradient on the ground engagement mechanism is sensed between the ground engagement mechanism and the ground surface. A trailer brake disposed on the trailer is adjustably controlled by the control unit.

In the method, a braking operation is detected, a status condition is queried during a temporal observation window, and a yaw variable present and a physical characterizing variable present at the same time are detected. Subsequently, the detected yaw variable is stored and the yaw variable is assigned to a data set. This is repeated in order to create a database.
