Abstract
A system comprising an actuator configured to couple to a closing link and to a frame of an agricultural row unit, a monitoring system comprising a sensor, and a controller comprising a memory and a processor. The closing link is configured to pivotally couple to the frame and the actuator is configured to drive the closing link to rotate relative to the frame to control a closing depth of a closing disc rotatably coupled to the closing link. The sensor is configured to output a sensor signal indicative of an extension length of the actuator. The controller is communicatively coupled to the sensor, and the controller is configured to determine the extension length of the actuator based on the sensor signal.
