A plough comprising: a plough body; an actuator mechanism that is configured to adjust a pitch angle of the plough body; and a controller. The controller is configured to: determine an actuator-control-signal for setting the pitch angle of the plough body based on control-data; and provide the actuator-control-signal to the actuator mechanism.

The invention relates to a plough module (1) with plough-following stabilisation for mounting on a base frame of a plough device, comprising a rotatable first cutting element designed as a hollow-disc cutting plate. A lateral region (122) of a soil ridge can be cut away by moving the plough module (1) on the ground along a ploughing direction (110). The plough module (1) comprises a second plat cutting element (105) with a second cutting edge (106), wherein a base region (121) of the soil ridge can be cut away by moving the plough module (1) on the ground. The plough module (1) is designed as a fully assembled unit, in which the second cutting element, designed as a fixed cutting blade (6), follows the first cutting element (102) in the ploughing direction (110). The cutting blade (6) is angled backwards relative to the working angle, achieving a dynamic balance of forces between the first cutting element (102) and the cutting blade (6) for plough-following stabilisation. A contact plate (8) is provided on the cutting blade (6), which is supported on a furrow wall (121) such that a stabilising effect follows the plough.

The invention relates to a plough module (1) for interchangeable mounting on a base frame (2) of a ploughing assembly (3) for ploughing ground, wherein the plough module (1) comprises: a rotatable first cutting element (102) which is designed as a coulter disc and has a rotating first cutting edge (103), wherein the first coulter element (102) is designed in such a manner that a lateral region (202) of a soil ridge (201) in the ground (120) can be cut by moving the plough module (1) on the ground (120) in a ploughing direction (110), a second, flat cutting element (105) having a second cutting edge (106), wherein the second cutting element (105) is designed in such a manner that a ground region (203) of a soil ridge (201) in the ground (120) can be cut by moving the plough module (1) on the ground (120) in a ploughing direction (110), characterized in that the plough module (1) is designed as a ready-mounted unit in which the second cutting element (105) in the ploughing direction (110) follows with its cutting edge the first cutting element (102), and with a first carrier structure (4), on which the first cutting element (102) is arranged, a second carrier structure (5), on which the second cutting element (105) is arranged and which is connected to the first carrier structure (4), and that the first carrier structure (4) has means for detachable attachment to a base frame (220) of a ploughing assembly (3).
