A method for compensating for ground unevenness for an agricultural machine, comprising:
- mounting a distributor boom onto a chassis in a height-adjustable manner relative to the chassis, wherein the distributor boom comprises a central part and side parts which are pivotably arranged to the left and right on the central part, as well as a plurality of distribution elements for distributing materials;
- modifying a vertical position of the distributor boom relative to the chassis via an actuating device;
- detecting a rotation in a direction of travel for the agricultural machine using a sensor device, the rotation comprising at least one of:
- a rotation of the chassis in the direction of travel;
- or
- a rotation of the distributor boom in the direction of travel;
- and
- generating actuating signals for the actuating device using a data processing device, wherein the actuating signals change the vertical position of the distributor boom and are generated based on the detected rotation.
