Abstract: A method for controlling an attachment provided to a boom of a vehicle, the method including: sensing a ground force on the attachment; determining if the ground force is outside a target deadband, wherein the target deadband is based on a height of the attachment over the ground, and, if the ground force is outside the target deadband, adjusting a cylinder pressure to bring the ground force within the deadband. A system for controlling an attachment on a boom, the system including: a control system; a hydraulic system for at least a first piston provided to the boom; and a first pressure sensor for sensing a pressure related to the attachment and communicating the sensed pressure to the control system, wherein the control system determines if the pressure is outside a target deadband, and, if so, adjusts a pressure at the piston to bring the sensed pressure within the deadband.

Abstract: A method and system for planting seedlings including a seedling handling system, a seedling chute system and a planting head. The method includes retrieving a row of seedlings and then delivering the row of seedlings to the planting head for individual planting of the seedlings.

Abstract: A method and system for planting seedlings including a seedling handling system, a seedling chute system and a planting head. The seedling handling system retrieves the seedlings and then the seedling chute system transfers the seedlings from the seedling handling system to the planting head which then plants the seedlings. The method includes retrieving a row of seedlings and then delivering the row of seedlings to the planting head for individual planting of the seedlings. The method and system provide for continuous tree planting.
