A self-propelled forage harvester. The forage harvester comprises a height-adjustable front attachment for collecting harvested material, work units for processing the harvested material, a transfer device for discharging the processed harvested material, a camera system for capturing images of a flow of harvested material passing through the forage harvester, an image evaluation device for evaluating the images, and a driver assistance system for actuating the front attachment, the work units and the transfer device. The image evaluation device is configured to continuously analyze the images of the flow of harvested material using a machine learning algorithm for a proportion of in particular inorganic contaminants contained in the flow of harvested material and to transmit a degree of contamination derived therefrom to the driver assistance system, which may autonomously adapt setting(s) of the front attachment and/or at least one of the work units depending on the degree of contamination.
