    Abstract: It is a system suitable for being incorporated into the joint points of the mounting structure that links the horizontal crossbar of the chassis of the seeding machine, with each of the sowing bodies that it incorporates, where said mounting structure comprises two deformable parallelograms that are made up of pairs of lateral arms which extend between the pair of vertical bars fixed to said horizontal crossbar of the seeder chassis, and corresponding vertical bars that make up each sowing body. It comprises a rolling element which defines an upper bearing track on whose external face a lateral arm rests, and a lower bearing track linked to a transverse mounting axis. It comprises a single piece made up of an axis that, at one end, configures the bearing, and at its other end, defines a threaded section for the incorporation of the corresponding adjustment nut. On the end opposite to the threaded section of the transverse axis, a central housing, preferably hexagonal, that receives a manually operated key is defined. On the external face of the transverse axis, opposite to the threaded section, the seat for an annular seal gasket is defined. The lateral arms may extend supported on the external faces of the vertical uprights or on the internal faces of the vertical uprights. The bearing is a bearing selected from the group consisting of deep groove ball bearings, angular contact bearings, cylindrical roller bearings, needle roller bearings, spherical rollers. The bearing is contemplated as having a lower ring that abuts on the upright of the joint, while its upper ring abuts on the lateral arm of the joint.

    Abstract: An agricultural implement has implement settings for soil engaging tools that are controlled based on measured temporal and long-term soil properties in a field. A controller receives data from various soil and optical sensors and provides decision support for adjusting the implement settings. The soil sensors include a square or modified square electrical array that includes two independent, isolated disk coulters running side-by-side followed by two independent, isolated soil engaging runners. One runner has an optical sensor for organic matter, and the other runner has a temperature and moisture sensor. Above-ground optical sensors can be used to measure soil and plant material ahead of and behind the soil engaging tool. The controller can provide real time alerts to an operator that adjustments to the implement settings are needed, or the adjustments can be made automatically based on operator set thresholds, factory settings, or historical individual or global grower adjustments.

    Abstract: An agricultural machine includes a tractor having a front end, a rear end, and a front frame coupled to the front end. The agricultural machine includes an implement coupled to the rear end of the tractor. The agricultural machine includes a supply line configured to transfer commodity from a front tank, which is configured to be supported above the ground by the front frame, to a main tank of the agricultural machine. The main tank distributes commodity to row units, which distribute the commodity to the soil, and the supply line transfers additional commodity to the main tank. The front frame is movable relative to the front end of the tractor to cause engagement of the supply line with the front tank.
