An agricultural implement includes: a center frame defining a travel axis; a tool bar connected to the center frame and extending transversely to the travel axis; a first row unit having a first parallel linkage defining a first linkage angle relative to the tool bar; a first angle sensor associated with the tool bar and the first parallel linkage and configured to output a first linkage angle signal corresponding to the first linkage angle; an actuator linked to the first row unit and configured to adjust the first linkage angle; and a controller operationally coupled to the first angle sensor and the actuator. The controller is configured to: determine the first linkage angle; compare the first linkage angle to a preset linkage angle; and activate the actuator to adjust the first linkage angle to the preset linkage angle if the first linkage angle deviates from the preset linkage angle.
