Abstract: A combine harvester. The combine harvester includes a plurality of working units and a driver assistance system for controlling the working units. The driver assistance system comprises a memory for saving data and a computing device for processing the data saved in the memory. The working units and the driver assistance system form a setting machine in that a plurality of selectable harvesting process strategies are saved in the memory, and in that the computing device autonomously determines at least one setting parameter for the implementation of the selected harvesting process strategy and specifies it to the working units. An overall model per target variable is saved in the memory and forms functional relationships between the target variable and a plurality of influencing variables, which comprise internal and external influencing variables. The computing device performs the autonomous determination of the at least one setting parameter based on the overall model.

Abstract: An agricultural work machine with at least one control and regulation device. The control and regulation device is configured to activate defined measuring points in saved characteristic curve fields, wherein the defined measuring points are located in the edge regions of the characteristic curve field and/or outside an active operating region of the given characteristic curve field. Further, the measuring points may be activated when the agricultural work machine is in an uncritical state.

Abstract: An agricultural production machine configured for determining optimized working parameters for the of the agricultural production machine is disclosed. The agricultural production machine has a driver assistance system and a sensor system and performs an agricultural task in a local context. The driver assistance system comprises a map control system that includes one or more maps to optimize work parameters of the process units of the agricultural production machine. A particular characteristic map describes a relationship between working parameters of the process unit and quality parameters using initial working points. When performing the agricultural task, the driver assistance system checks a local context to determine whether a context-related map is available and, if so, replace the basic map with the context-related map in order to determine optimized working parameters.
