A receiving vehicle can include a transfer assembly for transferring agricultural material from a transferring vehicle to the receiving vehicle as the transferring vehicle is performing a harvesting operation, and while the receiving and transferring vehicles travel along a field. The transfer assembly can be selectively displaceable between a retracted, or compacted, state and an extended state. At the extended state, a transfer body of the transfer assembly can be positioned to receive agricultural material released from the transferring vehicle. The agricultural material can be released from the transferring vehicle in a variety of manners, including via reliance on gravitational forces. The transfer assembly can include one or more conveyors that are driven using power from the receiving vehicle to convey the received agricultural material along the transfer body and to a location at which the agricultural material can be dispensed into a storage area of the receiving vehicle.

A method for transferring seed during a planting operation includes receiving, by a theft detection system, a first equipment identity of first equipment, receiving the seed into a seed bin of second equipment from the first equipment, determining, using a sensing device disposed on the second equipment and communicatively coupled to the theft detection system, a first weight value indicative of weight of the seed received into the seed bin from the first equipment, and at least one of transmitting, by the theft detection system using a satellite data communication protocol, the first weight value and the first equipment identity to a tracking system, and determining, by the theft detection system, whether any of the seed was stolen based on the first weight value and the first equipment identity and selectively generating and transmitting a notification to the tracking system indicating that the seed was stolen.

A cross member on a receiving vehicle which is coupled to a following vehicle, is located relative to a leading vehicle. The location of the cross member is tracked during an unloading operation so the leading vehicle avoids the cross member when unloading material into the receiving vehicle.
