Adaptively adjusting parameters of equipment operating in unpredictable terrain

Implementations are disclosed for adaptively adjusting various parameters of equipment in unpredictable terrain, such as agricultural fields. In various implementations, edge computing device(s) may obtain a first image captured by vision sensor(s) transported across an agricultural field by a vehicle. The first image may depict plant(s) growing in the agricultural area. The edge computing device(s) may process the first image based on a machine learning model to generate agricultural inference(s) about the plant(s) growing in the agricultural area. The edge computing device(s) may determine a quality metric for the agricultural inference(s). While the vehicle continues to travel across the agricultural field, and based on the quality metric: the edge computing device(s) may trigger one or more hardware adjustments to one or more of the vision sensors, or one or more adjustments in an operation of the vehicle.
