Abstract
A system for controlling the operation of a row cleaning device of a seed-planting implement may include a row cleaning device configured to adjust a surface cleanliness of a portion of a field, at least one row sensor, and a controller. The at least one row sensor may generate data indicative of a first surface cleanliness parameter within a worked area of the field positioned aft of the row cleaning device and a second surface cleanliness parameter within an unworked area of the field, the unworked area being outside of the worked area. The controller may be configured to receive the data indicative of the first and second surface cleanliness parameters from the at least one row sensor, and to determine an efficiency of the row cleaning device based at least in part on the first and second surface cleanliness parameters.
