Abstract

In one aspect, a method for reducing material accumulation relative to a closing assembly of an agricultural implement may include receiving an input associated with an amount of material accumulation relative to the closing assembly. Additionally, the method may include controlling an operation of the implement based on the received input such that at least one of a first closing tool or a second closing tool of the closing assembly moves from a working position to a material removal position to reduce an amount of material accumulation relative to the closing assembly. The method may also include controlling an operation of an actuator of the implement to actuate the at least one of the first closing tool or the second closing tool from the material removal position back to the working position.
