A driver assistance system for a combine harvester that has a processing stage with an input for a crop flow, a first output for a useful flow and has abundant threshed grains, and a second output for a residual flow with scarce grains. At least one operating parameter of the processing stage is adjustable. The driver assistance system has an actuatable rethreshing device arranged at the second output of the processing stage, a residual grain sensor for detecting a proportion of threshed out grain in the residual flow downstream of the rethreshing device, and an evaluating device that turns the rethreshing device on and off, compares the proportions of threshed out grains in the residual flow when the rethreshing device is turned on and when the rethreshing device is turned off, and to adapt the at least one operating parameter of the processing stage based on the comparison.

A combine harvester has multiple working mechanisms for carrying out specific treatment subprocesses of an overall treatment process for processing crop, and a driver assistance system for controlling the working mechanisms, which includes a memory for storing data and a computing device for processing the data stored in the memory, wherein the driver assistance system, together with the particular working mechanisms provided for carrying out the treatment subprocesses, forms independently operating automated adjusting mechanisms which are utilized for optimizing the control of the working mechanisms for carrying out the treatment subprocesses, wherein a process supervisor is assigned to the driver assistance system for controlling individual automated adjusting mechanisms and a data exchange of the automated adjusting mechanisms with one another.

A system and method of controlling an agricultural machine includes successively recording signals from a first sensor sensing an agronomic parameter of a field during an operation of the machine in the field. The system and method of controlling an agricultural machine also includes successively recording signals from a second sensor sensing an operation parameter of the machine during the operation of the machine in the field. The signals of the first sensor and the second sensor are spatially overlaid. A respective zone in the field is determined from the overlaid signals. An actuator of the machine is controlled dependent on the determined zone in which the machine operates.

A computer-implemented method includes obtaining harvest data indicative of a prior harvesting operation on a field, identifying a region of the field having already-harvested crop plants based on the harvest data, detecting a characteristic of crop plants in a field in a path of an agricultural harvesting machine in a direction of travel, generating, based on the detected characteristic, a height metric representing a height of the crop plants on a particular area of the field, and generating a control signal to control the agricultural harvesting machine based on the height metric and the identified region.

A threshing system of an agricultural harvester. The threshing system including a rotor cage surrounding a rotor defining a threshing space there between. The rotor cage has a cut crop entrance, a transition cone defining an infeed to the rotor cage, where the transition cone is positioned to direct crop flow toward the cut crop entrance of the rotor cage. The threshing system also includes an infeed ramp positioned between the rotor cage and the transition cone, where the infeed ramp includes guide vanes for guiding the crop flow from the transition cone into the cut crop entrance of the rotor cage.
