Abstract
A condition verification system for an agricultural system includes a sensor configured to output a sensor signal indicative of a position of a ground engaging tool of the agricultural system relative to soil. The condition verification system also includes a controller having a memory and a processor, in which the controller is communicatively coupled to the sensor. The controller is configured to receive the sensor signal from the sensor, determine whether the ground engaging tool is engaged with the soil based on the position of the ground engaging tool, and terminate or block initiation of at least one control action of a speed control system of the agricultural system and/or a steering control system of the agricultural system in response to determining the ground engaging tool is engaged with the soil.
