Abstract
Systems and methods disclosed provide for hay and forage workflow mapping. The system includes an agricultural vehicle, a sensor array, and a control system communicatively coupled to the agricultural vehicle. The sensor array includes one or more sensors that collect cutting data corresponding to a crop cutting operation, raking data corresponding to a crop raking operation, and gathering data corresponding to a crop gathering operation. The control system includes processing circuitry. The system receives the cutting data and generates a cutting map therefrom. Using the cutting map, the system generates a proposed raking path for the crop raking operation. The system also receives the raking data and generates a raking map therefrom. Using the raking map, the system generates a proposed gathering path for the crop gathering operation. Additionally, the system receives the gathering data and generates a gathering map therefrom. Successive proposed paths are generated from previously generated mappings.
