Abstract
A system for controlling the operation of an agricultural implement includes a disk blade configured to rotate relative to soil in a field across which the agricultural implement is traveling. Furthermore, the system includes an imaging device configured to generate image data depicting a portion of the field positioned forward of the disk blade. Additionally, a computing system is configured to analyze the image data generated by the imaging device to identify one or more corn stalks that have been severed from a corresponding root ball and are present on a surface of the imaged portion of the field. Moreover, the computing system is configured to determine a length parameter associated with the identified one or more corn stalks. In addition, the computing system is configured to control an operating parameter of the disk blade based on the determined length parameter.
