Systems and methods for predictive harvesting logistics

A computer implemented method comprising:

• obtaining data indicative of values of a crop characteristic at a worksite;
• determining an amount of crop material to be transferred to a delivery location;
• identifying, based, at least, on the data and the amount of crop material to be transferred to the delivery location, a material transfer start location, indicative of a location at the worksite at which a material transfer operation between an agricultural harvester and an agricultural receiving machine is to start and a material transfer end location, indicative of a location at the worksite at which the material transfer operation between the agricultural harvester and the agricultural receiving machine is to end;
• and
• controlling the agricultural harvester or the agricultural receiving machine, or both, based, on the material transfer start location or the material transfer end location, or both.

An agricultural system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• memory storing instructions executable by the one or more processors that, when executed by the one or more processors, configure the one or more processors to:
• determine an amount of crop material to be transferred to a delivery location;
• identify, based, at least, on the amount of crop material to be transferred to the delivery location, a material transfer start location, indicative of a location at the worksite at which a material transfer operation between an agricultural harvester and an agricultural receiving machine is to start and a material transfer end location indicative of a location at the worksite at which the material transfer operation between the agricultural harvester and the agricultural receiving machine is to end;
• and
• generate a control signal based, at least, on the material transfer start location or the material transfer end location, or both.
