Abstract: A method for spreading broadcasting material using an agricultural spreader is provided, and in particular with an open-loop and/or closed-loop control device in which open-loop and/or closed-loop control with at least one adjustment parameter is provided for the spreader and is configured to influence on the basis of the at least one adjustment parameter a spread pattern of the broadcasting material that can be spread by the spreader, where a need for the adaptation of a control behavior of the at least one adjustment parameter is detected, and after the detection of the need for the adaptation of the control behavior, the control behavior of the at least one adjustment parameter is adapted; where a need for adjustment parameter adaptation for influencing the spread pattern is additionally detected, and one or more adjustment parameters with adapted control behavior are changed after the need for adjustment parameter adaptation has been detected.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for spreading spreading material onto agricultural land (12) by way of an agricultural spreader (10), with the steps of: providing information on spreading boundaries (14) of agricultural land (12) to an electronic control device and moving the agricultural spreader (10) in the direction of a predetermined activation point in the vicinity of a spreading boundary (14) of the agricultural land (12) at which the start of dispensing spreading material onto at least one spreading disk is intended, where, while the dispensing of the spreading material is interrupted, the electronic control device automatically induces an anticipatory setting for a start configuration predetermined for the activation point at the agricultural spreader (10) before the agricultural spreader (10) reaches the activation point.
