Abstract
A system for controlling work vehicles used for towing agricultural implements across a field includes an implement controller supported on and configured to control an operation of an agricultural implement, and at least one sensor communicatively coupled to the implement controller. The sensor(s) is configured to provide an indication of a location of the agricultural implement within the field. The implement controller is configured to: access a field map; anticipate a change in loading of one or more of the ground-engaging tools of the implement based on the location of the implement relative to the field map; and transmit a request instructing a vehicle controller of a work vehicle towing the agricultural implement to initiate a control action associated with adjusting at least one vehicle-related operational parameter to accommodate the anticipated change.
