Abstract

A control system for an agricultural utility vehicle includes a distributor linkage for applying fertilizer, plant protection agents, or seed, the distributor linkage having a center part and two lateral extension arms. The center part is arranged so that it can be moved along a vertical axis to adjust the height of the distributor linkage. At least three sensors for determining the distance between the center part and a respective extension arm to the ground are assigned to the distributor linkage, and the system includes a data processing unit such that signals from the sensors are processed as actual values to generate an actuating signal for a hydraulic device is generated for adaptation to a target distance.
