Abstract: The disclosure relates to the system and methods for generating a guidance path for automated navigation of large agricultural equipment. Vehicle path data from leading vehicles can be recorded, stored or inputted into the system for generation of guidance paths offset from the swaths traversed by the leading vehicle. Combines, planters sprayers and other vehicles utilizing guidance system can be used to record leading vehicle data for use by the following vehicle in real time or in subsequent cycles. Enterprise systems can manage multiple grain carts and/or combines or other vehicles to maximize efficiency.

Abstract: An agricultural data system comprising at least one stalk sensor disposed on a harvester configured to sense incoming crop stalks, at least one processor in communication with the at least one stalk sensor, and a display in communication with the at least one processor, wherein the processor is configured to align as-planted data with as-harvested data from the at least one stalk sensor.

Abstract: A yield estimation system comprising a harvester. The harvester comprising a plurality of row units, one or more stalk sensors on each of the plurality of row units, and a yield monitor in communication with the plurality of row units. The system also comprising a processor configured to correlate data from the one or more stalk sensors to data from the yield monitor on a row-by-row basis and a display configured to display the correlated data to a user.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are various devices, systems, and methods for protecting open seed trenches form ingress of foreign material, such as plant residue. The preventing foreign material from entering the open seed trench during planting increases crop yield by minimizing delayed germination and late plant emergence. Various implementations of adjustable row cleaners may be used to prevent ingress of foreign material. Also, various shields may be disposed on the row units of a planter to prevent ingress of foreign material.

Abstract: The disclosed apparatus, systems, and methods relate to an automated hitch and various alternative devices to adjust the orientation of an agricultural implement and component parts thereof, including but not limited to a planter toolbar and/or planter row units relative to the soil surface to ensure the implement/components parts thereof maintain a position parallel to the soil surface.

Abstract: The disclosed devices, systems and methods relate to agricultural planters, particularly to a two-stage closing system for a planter row unit. In some implementations, the row unit includes a soil engaging member, where the soil engaging member engages at least one sidewall of a trench and displaces soil from the sidewall to cover the seed. In further implementations, the row unit includes a sensing system for sensing sidewall compaction and/or soil moisture.

Abstract: The disclosed apparatus, systems and methods relate to guidance and visualization systems for autosteering systems of agricultural implements. The system allows the operator to visualize the guidance paths throughout a field map or region to allow for the ability of the operator to make adjustments prior to engaging the auto steering unit, such as to row headings and positions.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to an on-the-go system for adjustment of various aspects of a planting row unit. The on-the-go system is able to vary the depth of the row cleaner by adjusting the downforce applied to the row cleaner to promote planting at an optimal seed depth and soil moisture while preventing late emergence.

Abstract: The disclosure is directed to an on-the-go planting system utilizing soil organic matter data to prescribed seeding rate, hybrid/variety selection or soil treatment. The system weights at least two field attribute data types, such as soil organic matter data and normalized yield data to prescribe one or more outcomes. The system can also generate a yield potential value so as to prescribe the outcomes.
