Abstract
In one aspect, a system for monitoring disc conditions of an agricultural implement includes a disc configured to penetrate through a soil surface during the performance of an agricultural operation, and a distance sensor configured to generate data associated with a distance defined between the distance sensor and a portion of the disc. In addition, the system includes a computing system communicatively coupled with the distance sensor. The computing system is configured to monitor the distance defined between the distance sensor and the disc based on the data received from the distance sensor, and detect a pattern in the monitored distance over time that is associated with at least one of a damage pattern or a missing disc pattern.
