System and method for monitoring soil conditions within a field

A system for monitoring soil conditions within a field, the system comprising:

• an agricultural implement including a frame and a ganged tool assembly supported relative to the frame, the ganged tool assembly including a toolbar coupled to the frame and a plurality of ground-engaging tools coupled to the toolbar;
• a first sensor provided in operative association with the ganged tool assembly and configured to detect motion of the ganged tool assembly as the agricultural implement is moved across the field;
• a second sensor separate from the first sensor, the second sensor configured to detect an orientation of the ganged tool assembly relative to at least one of the field or the frame as the agricultural implement is moved across the field;
• and
• a controller communicatively coupled to the first and second sensors, the controller configured to determine an indication of a soil condition at a given location within the field based at least in part on the detected motion and the detected orientation of the ganged tool assembly at the given location within the field.
