A device for detection and determination of a composition of a bulk material has an image recording unit, a control unit, a memory unit and a selection unit to enable a qualified determination to be made, during a transfer of a crop material flow into a container of an agricultural harvesting machine, of a composition of a crop during processing of the crop material. The determination enables changing of adjustment parameters of working assemblies of the agricultural harvesting machine during the processing of the crop material. The image recording unit has at least two image detectors for recording images or image series of the crop material flow.
