AGRICULTURAL RESIDUE DEPOSITING APPARATUS AND METHOD

Agricultural residue depositing apparatus comprises a human-controllable mobile vehicle (10) that is capable of generating agricultural residue (R) and depositing it on a ground surface (G) over which the mobile vehicle (10) is moveable, the mobile vehicle (10) including an interface device (12) that is capable of generating one or more output that is interpretable by a human operator; the apparatus including one or more sensors (18) of agricultural residue deposited by the mobile vehicle and one or more processors (22) to which the one or more sensors (18) are operatively connected, the one or more processors (22) additionally being operatively connected to the interface device (12) such that the interface device (12) generates one or more outputs, based on one or more signals generated by the one or more sensors (18), of or relating to agricultural residue (R) deposited by the mobile vehicle (10); and the one or more processors (22) being capable of adding human-interpretable augmentation to one or more said outputs indicating one or more parameters of or relating to the deposition of residue (R).
