System and method for controlling an agricultural system based on slip

A non-transitory computer readable medium, comprising instructions that, when executed by processing circuitry, are configured to cause the processing circuitry to:

• receive a plurality of signals, each signal of the plurality of signals being indicative of a linear speed associated with a respective wheel of a plurality of wheels coupled to an agricultural implement configured to perform a farming operation on a field;
• determine that a first linear speed associated with a first wheel of the plurality of wheels is outside of a threshold range of linear speeds associated with a no-slip condition, wherein the first wheel is associated with a first location on the agricultural implement;
• determine that a first section of ground engagement tools of a plurality of ground engagement tools coupled to the agricultural implement is associated with the first location;
• and
• output a control signal to reduce engagement between the first section of ground engagement tools and the field in response to the first linear speed being outside the threshold range of linear speeds and the first section of ground engagement tools being associated with the first location.

An agricultural system, comprising:

• an agricultural implement comprising a first section and a second section, wherein the first section comprises a first ground engagement tool, the second section comprises a second ground engagement tool, and each of the first ground engagement tool and the second ground engagement tool is configured to engage a field;
• and
• a control system comprising a memory having instructions and a processor configured to execute the instructions to:
• determine that a first linear speed associated with a first wheel of a plurality of wheels of the agricultural implement is outside of a threshold range of linear speeds associated with a no-slip condition, wherein the first wheel is associated with a first location on the agricultural implement;
• determine that a second linear speed associated with a second wheel of the plurality of wheels of the agricultural implement is within the threshold range of linear speeds, wherein the second wheel is associated with a second location on the agricultural implement;
• determine that the first section comprising the first ground engagement tool is associated with the first location;
• determine that the second section comprising the second ground engagement tool is associated with the second location;
• output a control signal to reduce engagement between the first ground engagement tool of the first section and the field in response to the first linear speed being outside the threshold range of linear speeds and the first section being associated with the first location;
• and
• maintain engagement between the second ground engagement tool of the second section and the field in response to the second linear speed being within the threshold range of linear speeds and the second section being associated with the second location.
