Abstract
A system for determining field plantability during performance of a seed-planting operation with a seed-planting implement includes a soil moisture sensor configured to generate data indicative of a soil moisture content of a portion of the field. In this respect, a computing system is configured to determine a soil moisture content value of the portion of the field based on the data generated by the soil moisture sensor. Additionally, the computing system is configured to receive an input indicative of a soil composition parameter of the portion of the field and determine a soil composition parameter value of the portion of the field based on the received input. Moreover, the computing system is configured to determine a plantability index value for the portion of the field based on the determined soil moisture content value and the determined soil composition parameter value.
