System and method for controlling the operation of an agricultural vehicle configured to tow an agricultural implement

Abstract

A system for controlling the operation of an agricultural vehicle configured to tow an agricultural implement includes an engine coupled to a frame of the agricultural vehicle and a transmission operatively coupled to the engine. The system also includes a sensor configured to generate data indicative of a field surface incline forward of the agricultural vehicle relative to a direction of travel of the agricultural vehicle. Additionally, the system includes a computing system communicatively coupled to the sensor. The computing system is configured to determine a field surface incline parameter based on the data generated by the sensor. Furthermore, the computing system is configured to initiate an adjustment to an operation of at least one of the engine or the transmission based on the determined field surface parameter prior to engagement of the field surface incline.
