The implement includes a frame supporting at least one ground-engaging tool and at least one image imager system coupled to a longitudinal end of the frame. The tractor includes a central controller, wherein the at least imager system is operably coupled to the central controller. The central controller is configured to receive image data from an imager system, analyze the image data to identify at least one mark formed in a soil surface, and responsive to identifying the at least one mark, cause feedback regarding a current position and orientation of the implement and an ideal position and orientation of the implement to be output via an input/output device.
