Abstract
An agricultural system includes: one or more weight sensors that detect a weight of material in a first material receptacle and generate sensor data indicative thereof; one or more processors; memory; and computer executable instructions, stored in the memory, that, when executed by the one or more processors, configure the one or more processors to: determine a change in weight of material in the first material receptacle based on first sensor data indicative of a weight of material in the first material receptacle at a first time and second sensor data indicative of a weight of material in the first material receptacle at a second time; determine a material transfer rate indicative of a rate at which a material transfer subsystem transfers material based on the determined change in weight; and determine a fill level of material in a second material receptacle based on the determined material transfer rate.
