Abstract: An agricultural assistance system including a driver assistance system for controlling one or both of a prime mover and an attachment of an agricultural combination is disclosed. The agricultural assistance system generates control parameters for one or both of the prime mover and the attachment, has a rule interpreter that generates the control parameters by processing rules from sets of rules, and has a rule generator that provides a plurality of sets of rules. The agricultural assistance system executes the rule interpreter as needed on control hardware that is part of one or both of the prime mover or the attachment, and on control hardware that is disposed remote from the combination. The agricultural assistance system has a coordination module for this which, independent of the site at which the rule interpreter is run, coordinates the rule interpreter with the control generator and the driver assistance system.

Abstract: A system and method for controlling, such as pre-optimizing, agricultural work processes for agricultural combinations is disclosed. Agricultural combinations include an agricultural production machine and different agricultural attachments. A sensor assembly determines an absolute working height of the agricultural attachments using a sensor measuring data regarding the absolute working height. The agricultural combination includes a combination control assembly that controls and/or regulates machine parameters of the particular agricultural combination based on an optimization data set and the measured data obtained during the working process. An optimization control assembly determines the optimization data set from competing optimization goals, optimization data both apart from and relating to the combination.

Abstract: A method and system for planning an optimized soil cultivation process of a field for anf agricultural combination is disclosed. The agricultural combination includes an agricultural production machine and a soil cultivating agricultural attachment. A planning control assembly is used to determine recommended actions for the soil cultivation process with an expert model using soil data of the field, wherein the soil data of the field is location-dependent.

Abstract: A method and system for measuring a working height, such as an absolute working height, of a plurality of agricultural attachments using a sensor assembly is disclosed. The sensor assembly includes a sensor and at least one sensor holder. The sensor holder is mounted at mounting positions onto different attachments, with the sensor being reversibly mounted in the sensor holder at the mounting position. The sensor, in a mounted state, records measured data relating to a working height of the agricultural attachment and transmits the measured data to the control assembly. In turn, the control assembly determines the working height of the particular attachment from a calibration data set specific to the mounting position.

Abstract: An agricultural work system has an agricultural work machine to which at least one mounted implement can be fitted via at least one implement interface. A work machine configuration is associated with the work machine, and a mounted implement configuration is associated with the mounted implement. A drive unit is provided which acts via a drivetrain on ground engaging elements, particularly on tires. A system control and a control/display unit associated with the work machine are provided. It is proposed that the system control is adapted to determine the mounted implement configuration, to calculate the implement interface load transmitted via the implement interface based on the determined mounted implement configuration, and to evaluate and/or optimize the work machine configuration based on the calculated implement interface load.

Abstract: An agricultural working machine with a driver assistance system is disclosed. The driver assistance system controls driving functions of the agricultural working machine and at least one working assembly of the agricultural working machine in the context of performing a work process. The driver assistance system accesses a set of rules in the form of control strategies to control the at least one work assembly according to a specific control strategy. The driver assistance system includes an interface to communicate with an external computer unit, which is remote from the agricultural working machine, and through which data can be exchanged between the driver assistance system and the external computer unit. For example, the driver assistance system receives data from the external computer unit via the interface during the work process of the agricultural working machine, and selects the control strategy for performing the work process based on the data.

Abstract: A driver assistance system for controlling a combination of agricultural vehicles including a towing vehicle designed as a tractor and a mounted device, wherein the driver assistance system generates control parameters for the towing vehicle and/or for the mounted device. The driver assistance system has an input/output unit for the dialog with the user. The driver assistance system is formed by a rule interpreter which generates the control parameters by executing the rules of a set of rules, and the driver assistance system has a linking module which receives at least two sets of rules from different data sources and generates, on the basis of the received sets of rules and according to a linkage specification, the set of rules to be executed by the rule interpreter.

Abstract: An agricultural machine, such as a tractor, includes a driver assistance system that has an input/output unit. The input/output unit carries out settings relating to an agricultural working task by an operator and displays virtual operating elements, allowing the settings and the displaying of information corresponding to the settings to be or have been made. The input/output unit allows for an interactive setting of at least one parameter of the agricultural machine and/or at least one working unit for implementing or supporting the agricultural working task, with the interactive setting being performed in a symbol-based and/or image-based or guided manner. Further, the at settable parameter, its value, or value range is preselected by the driver assistance system based on the agricultural working task selected, the working unit selected, or added on by the operator.
