SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AUTOMATIC WEIGHT MONITORING AND CONTROL DURING A MATERIAL MOVING OPERATION

In one aspect, a method for providing automatic weight monitoring and control during the performance of a material moving operation by a work vehicle includes receiving an input associated with a target weight for a material to be collected within the implement. Additionally, upon receipt of an indication that an implement of the vehicle has been pushed into a source of the material, the method includes automatically controlling an operation of loader arms of the vehicle to raise the implement relative to the source of the material. In addition, the method includes monitoring a weight of the material collected within the implement as the implement is being raised relative to the source of material, and notifying an operator of the work vehicle when it is determined that the monitored weight of the material is equal to the target weight or fails within a tolerance range associated with the target weight.
