Abstract
An agricultural implement includes a frame and a basket assembly supported on the frame. The basket assembly, in turn, includes including a plurality of circumferentially arranged blades such that the basket assembly is configured to roll relative to a surface of a field as the agricultural implement travels across the field. Furthermore, the plurality of circumferentially arranged blades define a plurality of voids and at least partially defining an interior cavity within the basket assembly, with each void being defined between an adjacent pair of the plurality of circumferentially arranged blades. Additionally, the agricultural implement includes a bladder positioned within the interior cavity, with the bladder configured to be inflated and deflated such that the bladder expands and contracts relative to the plurality of circumferentially arranged blades to force field materials present within the interior cavity outward through the plurality of voids.
